Crush or move?
From the link... Well here is the question. We are now putting up for sale our four acres up the street in anticipation of purchasing our new building and must move the over 100 914s on the property. I had fully intended to move all of them to our body shop location for over 5000 in cost. However today, a crusher called offering almost $20,000 dollars for all of them. What would YOU do? |

Part of the reason (among many) why Speedsters are so valuable is the scarcity of them. A few years back an entire truckload of speedsters got rammed by a train and destroyed something like 8 of them. While very unfortunately, some people in the know said right then the value of speedsters just went up 10% due to even less good ones being around.
I agree, rust buckets are not going to affect the value of a good 914. But then, why bother to keep them? If they are reasonably rebuildable, or have salvageble parts that can help build another car, absolutely keep them. but if they are too far gone, why bother? Sorry, but I also believe in pulling the plug when there is no hope for survival other than being kept on machine life support. eventually, you have to let things go... |
