I have a ravenna green 1973 914 (No Motor). The car had minimal rust in the rear trunk that has been repaired and a slight amount of rust on the passenger side rear floor pan. The car is as solid as it can be. I added the chasis re-enforcement and I also welded in beef up plates for the rear suspension ears. I have pictures of the underside of the car while it was on the rottisserie and while it was bare metal. The rockers are all original and have no rust. It has metal flares, immitation fuchs. I was going to go watercooled so it already has a radiator with all the shrouding and fan set-up. I modified the front bumper with the 350Z billet grill as many others have done. I also fabbed a gt style engine grill. I would include new aftermarket bumper tops and just about all the rubber seals. The car has a 5 lug set-up from a 911 in the front and drilled rear hubs(all Bilstein and delrin bushings with grease fittings). It also has a 23mm front sway bar. The rear stock sway bar will come with the car but it's not installed. Also included would be powder coated black side mirrors along with powder coated black door handles. the rear valance is steel and has been fitted to the flares, the front valance is fiberglass and still needs fitment. Rear trunk is fiberglass and fits decent. The rocker panels are fiberglass and still need a little work but they are a close fit. the seats are grey leather and look really good. Also comes with a pearlon carpet kit. I have just about all the parts to put the car back together. I'm trying to get a ballpark number of what I should try to sell at. I'm sure there is plenty i'm leaving out.

its a project car, so that values it much lower than a running car.
You have focused the build on a watercooled car, so that limits your audience. I would not be aas kind as AP Girl, mainly because I buy them frequently...as projects. I would say 2-3k is what it might be worth, if you happen to find the right buyer. You may have to come down from there to get a nibble. I see a minimum of 10k to get the car completed. Paint alone could take half of that costs. Then you need to acquire a motor and sort through the install, transmission, etc etc. At the end of the day, a well done watercooled car is still 10-15k depending upon the market and level of details. rich |
