While I agree it's significantly overpriced, don't forget what just a quality paint job cost and labor for restoration. The labor can add up in a hurry if a shop does it. In fact, I don't how you could possibly make money buying restoring and selling.
Some ball park #'s..... Lets say a rebuildable car cost 2k, decent paint 6k, interior 1k, suspension 2k, rubber 1-2k (labor not included), engine rebuild 2-3k, tranny 1-2k, brakes 1k etc etc etc.... you get the picture....it adds up in a hurry. It's not that hard to get that kind of money invested in a nice car. If I deducted the 3.6\915 portion out of mine I would easily have that much invested and I did the work myself. Granted EVERYTHING was rebuilt or replaced. I started with a $750.00 car. With more and more 914's going to scrap and fewer original cars, I think we are going to see more and more $10-$20k 4 cylinder cars. It's just a matter of time. |
