OK, lets assume you buy a nicely restored chassis for $5000. Then you take all of the parts off your "worst for wear" driver and put them on that new chassis. Magically you now have a factory 914-6 in pretty good condition. Is it worth it?
What if you paid $5000 for your "worst for wear" driver; now you have $10k in this pretty good factory 914-6. Is it worth it? What if you had put a whole bunch of money into your "worst for wear" driver and add it to the pretty good 914-6 total. Is it worth it? Seriously though, I'm contemplating this sinerio right now. Is a VIN number really worth it? |

i have seen worse come back to life. much worse in fact.
if i had the parts to finish the car, that would be a good shell to start. acid-dip it, repair it and off you go. as for the front clip, you'll always be able to tell if the whole clip was replaced, especially since the tub is stripped. another easy to spot clue, on a original /6, the wall between the front trunk and the gas tank did *NOT* have a hole for the washer hose in the lower left corner!
