Currently own a 911 SC and looking to purchase a solid fix-'er-upper 914. Thanks to this board and Doug Hardman (aka CptTripps) I've learned a great deal about 914's over the last several weeks. What should I expect to pay for a solid 914 that I can drive and fix up? Anybody have a project that fits the bill?

Why a fixer? What are you itchen to fix? For less than top dollar you get a car with a tired body or a tired engine or both. FWIW, nice paint job: $4000 stock engine rebuild: $3000-$5000 full tranny rebuild: $3000-5000 Remember, parts often cost the same as on your SC. Buy a good running car to start with. Even on a nice 914 there will be plenty to fix and tinker with and restore. In the three+ years I've had my 914 I've put about $10K miles on it. There are guys here that I met three years ago that have barely logged 500 miles because their car is always up in the air. Would you rather drive or fix??? |
