I'm actually watching this with interest - not to buy - curious how the 914 race car market is doing..

$40k, wow that is not very much. Not a lot of bidding for 914-6 race cars I guess. I think if they are eligible for historic races they bring more money.

I agree. This seller built to auto x.
An even smaller buyers pool
Which is a shame. Because I believe him that the parts are worth more than the whole car

Engine and trans are worth $40k and a free car.

I really like the car. It showed me a lot of different ways of doing things. The wing is really radical and I see something's that I think could be finished better but we're just building race cars.
My build thread is here in the Paddock. If I get the shocks that I want the car will be sub 1600 pounds.

You can't get the value of the parts out of the sale of a race car.
Just like a boat a race car is a hole in the pavement that you can't fill with money.

At that price it would potentially be worth the $$ even for track use. It would need some upgrading, notably the rollcage.
