Newbie, questions from an inquisitor Options

[jeg242s]

I am considering getting into the 914 thing. I currently am rebuilding a 1989 Jeep Cherokee significant rust etc. etc. etc. My question is how much more difficult is it to maintain a 914? I am ok mechanially and was wondering if I could maintain a 914, I would love to learn about it and you guys seem to have a lot of information to dispose. Thanks in advance.

Where is Roachport Missouri? I used to live in Kansas City and the surrounding areas. Anyway, to hear these guys talk, its a never ending money pit. Do listen to them 100%. Only about 70%. They can cost a lot of money if you have to do a lot to the car. Body work is included in that also. The engines, you can build yourself for less than you can buy one already done. However, an already to go engine from a reputable place can save you a lot of headaches. I have built about 8 or 10 engines and I just like doing it. Others may not enjoy it as much as I do. Sometimes you make mistakes and they can be costly. Its called the learning curve. They are not kidding about how much fun they are to drive. There isnt another car out there for the money that can do what these cars can do in stock form. If you like them, get one and start driving it. You will be hooked.
