Afternoon all, just acquired a '73 914, which is in a bit of a state.
I'm mechanically challenged so unsure whether this is worth a restoration, or just selling.

I'm up in 29 Palms, I do have a few mechanic friends, so I have options.

First question, given your experience with 914's, what sort of figure would it sell at.
Second question, were I to attempt to restore it, what sort of outlay am I looking at.

More info - tags expire june '12, engine fires up, but runs rough. Most of the dash doesn't work. Got it from my BIL, who rear ended someone - hence hood tweaked at bit, but frame seems ok (according to mechanic friend lol)

Not the right set of photos. Floors, hell hole, jack points, trunk pans. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)
