Description
1974 Porsche Porsche 914 1.8L, originally sold new at Ogner Porsche Audi in Canoga Park, California, has lived its entire life in sunny California prior to coming to Arizona, free of rust and only 2 prior owners. Complete with its original owner’s manual, maintenance records, and factory service stamps from new, this Porsche has a well-documented history and has been treated to a no-expense-spared restoration that makes it stand tall among the finest examples out there.
Provenance & History:
- Purchased new on March 15, 1974 by its first owner in Van Nuys, CA.
- Later sold to the second owner in Sunnyvale, CA, in July 1992 with 130,000 miles, who kept it for decades before passing it on to my client—a well-respected auto body shop owner in Scottsdale, AZ.
- This lifelong California/Arizona car has always been cherished, never exposed to harsh elements, and remains 100% rust-free.
Restoration Highlights:
When my client acquired the car, he recognized its potential and went all in, treating it like one of his personal high-end projects. The result is nothing short of spectacular:
Exterior:
- The car was completely disassembled for a top-tier High Dollar paint job in its factory-correct Alaska Blue Metallic. (Walk in customer cost of an estimated $20K to $30K)
- The paint is smooth as glass, with incredible depth and clarity, and perfect panel fitment throughout.
- All new rubbers and seals, fresh chrome, and beautifully refinished trim.
- Factory Pedrini alloy wheels (all five, including the spare) wrapped in brand-new Yokohama tires.
- Front and rear luggage compartments have been fully refinished, complete with the correct spare, tool kit, and liner.
Interior:
- The interior was restored to OEM specs with correct black upholstery and carpeting.
- Extensive sound-deadening was added for a quiet, solid feel.
- RetroSound AM/FM/Bluetooth stereo for modern convenience while keeping the vintage look.
- Upgraded leather wrapped three-spoke steering wheel for a sportier feel.
Mechanicals & Performance:
- Correct 1.8L air-cooled flat-four, fuel-injected and running perfectly.
- The engine was rebuilt around 4–5 years ago, according to the previous owner.
- The car runs and drives beautifully—tight, responsive, and a blast to cruise in.
- Exhaust sounds fantastic, complementing the air-cooled engine’s character.
- Stops, steers, and accelerates effortlessly, turning heads everywhere it goes.
Why This 914 Stands Out:
This is not your average 914. The level of detail and quality throughout makes it one of the nicest examples available. You could park this car next to a six-figure Porsche and it would absolutely hold its own. Whether you’re adding to a collection or looking for a vintage sports car that’s ready to be enjoyed, this Porsche 914 will deliver.
Closing Thoughts:
You cannot replicate this car for the price. It’s a rare find that will make its next owner proud. If you’re in the market for a truly special Porsche 914, don’t miss this opportunity. The car is available to view in Scottsdale, AZ, and you’re more than welcome to check it out in person. If not, I’ve taken detailed photos and videos so you know exactly what you’re buying.
