Hi Guys - I'm at a major crossroads with my project and need to brainstorm with others in the 914 community.
As a baseline, this very nice conversion sold recently for $72.5k. Here's a link: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=343405 If *everything* else was the same, except the chassis was an original 1970 914/6 chassis (not originally a 914/4), and also that the original drivetrain is long gone, how would the market value differ? Please consider in both cases what fair market value is, and ignore the possibility this recent sale was a smokin' deal. Looking forward to your opinions ... Thanks, Bob |

If you do all the work correctly on either car, you will be upside down when done. However, you’ll feel better actually driving the conversion without being as concerned over the value. I was fortunate enough to have @ factory -6 and then built up a conversion -6, and the conversion was much easier to drive and not worry about it. However, choose whatever will give you joy!
