 What do you think a tricked out 914 built to these specs would be worth? |

I have built and sold other 914's with LS power and G50-52. Now I am out on a new adventure and want to keep the German theme and starting to wonder how up side down I will be. Face it, we just don't get our money back do we?
What is your guess on value if done well. Good clean tub with no rust All the body stiffening and Chromoly cage 2.7 Bi turbo Audi V6 450hp Cayman 6 speed trans with Wavetrac LSD Porsche 996 suspension and Brakes Steel GT fenders Cable operated head lights 996 turbo wheels fixed in place metal roof sparse interior like a Singer 911, a true drivers car With everything in working order and well sorted. I think it would be a keeper for me but I always say that. What do you think for a value? |

Looks like you all feel about the same as me. I've never made money on a conversion 914 but I have always got my money back from the parts. My labor is free because I love to build. The most I have got out of a V8 conversion is $24K. I really do always say this is the last one and when its complete I just need something to build. I took a break from 914's and the last build was a 1 ton jeep/Crawler and now that its done I all ready have all of the above mentioned parts for the 914. Building is a sickness for me.
