Okay, so there is a 914/6 listed just down the road from me (craigslist), and in fact I see it's also been listed here (914/6).

The seller described it's non-running state as being caused by a broken piston.

Some questions:
- I've read a lot of negative things about the 2.7 motor, so I presume that it would be pretty expensive and somewhat risky to attempt a rebuild?

- since it's already converted to run a 6, how straightforward would it be to drop in a 6 of a different vintage (i.e., a 3.0)?

- In your opinion ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) ), what is a more realistic value for this car?

Thanks.
