  Guys, I came across this 914 the other day and was wondering what I should make as an initial offer on it. I believe it is a '75 or '76. I have no idea on miles. It hasn't run in over 16 years. The interior is completely shot. All the rubbers around the windows and roof top will need to be replaced. It is sitting outside and apears to have been so for a long time. I can't see if the frame is rusted out or not. The passengers side rear quarter pannel has been banged pretty good.I have a 14 year old son who will be driving in 2 years and I thought it would be a good project car to work on together. If it's affordable.... what's it worth as it is?? |

I have a horror story for you along these same lines. I bought a 1970 -914 off of E-Bay several years ago with the hopes of building a finished car out of it. It ran and drove onto the dolly I picked it up with. I paid $1500 for the car sight unseen except pictures on e-bay. Passenger side pan was shot so I replaced it. gas pedal was held together with grey tape so I replaced it. I have purchased another parts car to strip and use as needed $750. New 924 seats and carpet. I have replaced many parts on the car and in my opinion it looked pretty good. I went into the hospital and needed to sell the car. I started at $1000 and had no takers. I called a local expert and he told me it was just a parts car and made a $600 an offer. This was to include a truck load of extra parts and stuff I had saved from the parts car, and extra engine and transmission, extra rims and new tires, I was shocked and the deal never went any farther. I thought this car would have a fair market value but was told by Addias in Belmont it was not worth hauling home. he is an expert. The car still lives in my back yard as a memorial of how not to spend my hard earned money and people not to try and deal with . I invested over $2500 I could not get $600 out of.
