I have a "spare" 2.4L engine needing a home. I know, I know, my car and I can do what I want but I don't think this black/appearance package/2.0L combination was falling off tree's back in the day. Original engine is long gone, so it won't ever be numbers matching but I do have a 2.0L in the right engine series for it.
I have a '74 1.8 shell I could build up instead of this one is better off being close to how it was born. Thoughts? Thanks and I hope everyone is having a good week. |

I say go for it so my car becomes more valuable (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
Kidding aside, I'm not really seeing that numbers matching is much of a factor in 914 values, at least not yet. I could be wrong, but with the exception of those rare low mileage, nearly pristine survivors (which obviously will be numbers matching) or an LE, I agree with Mark. Do what floats your boat. |
