I have a chance to pick up a running '76 S Targa with about 100K miles on it. It was originally orange but repainted white. Paint on hood and fenders is peeling. Interior is kind of shabby. Body is straight. It may have floor board rust as it has been covered with a rotting tarp. Has original 6 X 15 Fuchs. I can get this car for around $3K, maybe a little less. I have the cash but that depletes my car funds. Should I get it and try to make a little $$ with it? Get it for a 6 conversion? Or should I run?

Unless you're well aware of all of the potential rust issues 914's can have (the hidden ones are the ones that'll bite you (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif) ), or are a very good welder, I'd see if I couldn't get one of the local 914 owners to go with you for the inspection. 3k sounds a bit high by your description of the car, but without actually see the vehicle, I'll reserve judgement.
