Folks
Your input is appreciated- what would you pay for a 3.0 L engine on a 1970 or 1971 914 conversion body with fiber flares, body has no rust, engine is from a 85 911 SC with 130k miles without a rebuild and side shifter- I give it a 7/10 or 8/10 condition overall?

$3 to 5k more for the conversion parts depending their quality and a quality conversion sells. You've seen the car, I haven't. All too many conversions make me wanna puke.

You asked a general question & got a general answer and I'll stick to it. I had $14800 in my 2.4L conversion.... not including the price of the car ($4800) years ago. Couldn't sell it for 11K.

Made a AX race car of it with a large cash infusion & sold it with truck & trailer...for .50 on the buck.

+1

Typically .50 on the buck for a correctly completed car is about right. But you have to decide whether the car was really done properly or not.

If you don't know then look around this site for someone that knows (and is close) to check it for you. One of the huge advantages of this site. And seeing that you are in California, you are in talent country.
