About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Very rare 914/6 GT, converted to GT specs before leaving the factory rather than being converted later. The GT added steel fender flares, fiberglass deck lids, rocker panels and bumpers, ventilated brakes from the 911S, antiroll bars at both ends, Plexiglas rear and side windows, an extra front oil cooler and a long-range fuel tank. This one sold new to Canadian journalist and racer Jacques Duval, won its class at Daytona, and finished 4th in class at Sebring. Also won at the 6 Hours of Saint Croix and won its class at the Carnival at Three Rivers. Autocrossed successfully in the 1980s. It's one of the most desirable 914s in existence and has since been put back to the Sunoco of Canada livery it wore at Daytona. It has plenty of nicks, scratches and scrapes, plus the tires don't have a ton of life left in them. Its condition isn't particularly relevant as long as it's still ready to race, and it looks like it is. Most of this car's appeal is in its history, which also grants it access to many of the best vintage racing events in the world.

Market commentary

While it didn't quite hit the million-dollar mark, this is still a world record price for a 914 by a factor of three and just shy of the Euros 928,000 (about $1,051,100 at the time) brought by an ultra-rare 916 in Paris last year. It isn't particularly relevant to the 914 market in general since it was almost entirely about provenance and event eligibility. If you have a dusty 914/4 in the garage, don't get your hopes up.
