1973 Porsche 914-6 3.6 conversion the best of the best.
This is one of the finest 914-6 conversions to come out of our shop. Custom built for a gentleman who's life story changed, no expense was spared in making this car a Florida street rod, nice enough for a Porsche show yet as fast from stop light to stop light to astound any rice burner, while keeping cool in the florida heat!
Built from a one owner 1973 chassis taken to the body shell, we welded in the chassis stiffening kit and predrilled oil cooler, air conditioning condenser, air conditioning compressor, and oil tank holes, and welded in the dual club sport mount to handle the power of the 32,000 original mile 1992 964 engine we later installed with MSDS headers and stock 914-6 new Dansk muffler. The rebuilt transaxle features the so called "beefy" intermediate plate and is connected to rebuilt cv axles, tapped rear hubs and 914-6 rear rotors. The front end is all late model 911 with low slung front sway bar, turbo tie rods, bilstein shocks/struts and reproduction Mahle type "gas burner" wheels with Michelin tires. For the most part, everything is new or rebuilt on this example, and has recently been completed so there are virtually only test miles put on this 914-6. As you all probably know, we have done many of these six conversions at our award winning 914 shop so are very familiar with all aspects of these cars and how to get them very proper, like the factory would have done it back then. With stock six cylinder 914s in this condition selling for well over 100 thousand dollars, and too collectible to be driven, this car is the best of both worlds, tremendously powerful, reliable, make from the far superior late body shell, and as true to the factory tradition as would have been if they had made a 914-6 super car. With close to 100 thousand spent on this conversion, you will not be disappointed. Questions? Contact George Hussey dr914@autoatlanta.com or 404 308 5652.
