Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this 1971 Porsche 914. The Porsche 914 was a joint development between Porsche and Volkswagen and was an entry-level Porsche for 1970. With over 118k examples sold over its 8-year production run, the 914 series was a sales success for VW and Porsche. They were fun to drive, relatively cheap to maintain, and very adaptable to performance mods. Now these little 914s are appreciating in value and have well established fan clubs and flowers. This red over black vinyl interior, 1971 Porsche 914 is reported to be an all-original survivor by the seller. It runs and drives very well with a 1.7l air cooled flat four providing propulsion through a 5-speed manual transmission. The only evidence of its fifty-one years of age are inactive gauges and a few minor dings, plus slightly aged - but presentable - original paint. The car has been upgraded with an electric fuel pump which does wonders for reliability. Overall, it's a pleasant driver quality car that only needs cosmetic, and minor mechanical restoration to be concours ready. Let's Park this cool little Porsche in your garage today!

About Porsche 914
The Porsche 914 was a sports car produced jointly by Porsche and Volkswagen from 1969 to 1976. The car was designed to replace the Porsche 912 and the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, and was intended to be a more affordable entry-level sports car for both brands.The Porsche 914 was initially marketed as a Volkswagen-Porsche, and was sold through both Volkswagen and Porsche dealerships. However, as the car evolved, Porsche became increasingly involved in its development, and by the time production ended in 1976, the car was widely regarded as a genuine Porsche.
The Porsche 914 was available with a range of four-cylinder engines, including a 1.7-liter, a 1.8-liter, and a 2.0-liter engine, as well as a six-cylinder engine in the Porsche 914/6 model. The car featured a mid-engine layout, which helped to improve handling and balance, and was available with a range of transmissions, including a five-speed manual and a three-speed automatic.
Despite its initial reputation as a VW-Porsche hybrid, the Porsche 914 is now widely regarded as a unique and important part of Porsche's history. It was the first Porsche to feature a mid-engine layout, and its design and engineering helped to pave the way for other less iconic Porsche models, such as the Porsche Boxster.
