George, Now that we have broken the ice, I guess I'm asking what you think a ton is in greenbacks. #1 I thought you were an originality guy (Does this car have anything original besides the Vin?). In my opinion this is just a Hot Rod someone made out of an original six. Yes it's a six, yes I want another six, but not this one at this price. Add to fact the seller seems to be a little shy with his answers. I would rather have had the six with the limited-slip project that you had back in June.

Hi T.C. You are dead on the money I AM an originality guy, but also a rarity guy. The fact that this IS a 72 model (body!) makes the car extremely rare and would be worth buying just for that and restoring, selling the engine to a hotrodder to cover some of the expense. As you probably know the 72 six cylinders had the vented dash and the volkswagen key switch in the column with the two speed wiper motor, and the movable seat. A real vwb looking 914!
So, as far as having a real six the 70 is the best choice for price. With 441 71 models made and as stated previously 260 72 models, collectors will bid up the prices for the same quality car just because of the year difference QUOTE(carr914 @ Sep 26 2007, 03:06 PM)  George, Now that we have broken the ice, I guess I'm asking what you think a ton is in greenbacks. #1 I thought you were an originality guy (Does this car have anything original besides the Vin?).
