As many of you have followed my build thread I am pretty much done with my 914 GT conversion and have been driving her for over a year now but I'm losing the passion for her. I also have the 911 and I tend to want to drive the 911 more often. Plus I have other ' toys " that I'm working on and the 914 just sits and she deserves more. I'm even considering selling her. Do you guys go through this as well ?

Thanks guys. I'm fortunate I do not have to sell it or need the money but extra cash never hurts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) . I put over 3 years of sweat into the car and didn't spare the $$$ on parts so I'll never get out of her what I have in it but that was not the goal when I built her. This was going to be and still is the last car I do a full restoration on. But at age 54 I find that I want to explore other things like the Avion truck camper I'm restoring or the Boston Whaler I'm restoring or the BMW R90/6 motorcycle I bought last week ( no restoration required ). I'm lining up my life to hopefully retire in 5-6 years and one of the Porsche's will have to go at that time. The cost of upkeep/repairs is the same between the two because they both have 3.0 engines so that is a wash. Sounds like others are going through or have gone through what I'm feeling right now so I'm not alone. Like a kidney stone this to shall pass (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . I think I'll take her for a drive today so she doesn't feel neglected. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
