I have a 72 that's been in storage for over 30+ years and has rust to the point the doors don't close very well. I would like some opinions on whether I should restore it or part it out.
Wanted to restore for my first granddaughters 16 b-day but she doesn't seem to have interest in it at 11. These cars have never been flashy but I thought she would kinda like it.... Well anyways what would you do if this car was yours? What should I plan for cost? Injectors been missing for 30years so it may need a rebuild plus it has 99000 miles on it Interior is in nice conditions. No tears Also is anyone from Ohio Dave ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 404] ![]() ![]() Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

If you do decide to go the parting route, there is quite a bit there of value from what I can see. If the seats are in as good of shape as they look you could expect ~ 100, for both, if they are really nice w/no tears, maybe 100 each to someone local. the dash gauges will get you 75-100, the rear taillights, if uncracked can run 150 for the pair without trouble. If you have a complete lock set with key its ~400, ~25/switch for dash switches in working cond., ~50 for the metal engine grill badges, 50 for the leather covered steering wheel, and the list goes on.
I'm not interested in parts, but have parted 2 914's so far. My last car was totaled and I sold ~2600 in parts from it, and still got to keep the real goodies. Also, plenty of 914 owners in Ohio. |
