I have a 1972 car that had some body damage before I acquired it - looks to be cosmetic. Nothing major. left front fender lite side damage, just behind driver door lite bups, right rear fender lite bumps.
But the previous owner accepted a "TOTAL" at the time by his insurance and took the cash to repair it.... a handful of years ago when the value of 914s was low. I like the car, and plan to fix the lite body damage and get the car running. Once painted, the car should look just beautiful! .... no plans to sell the car, but I always say that. What is the general feeling regarding a salvaged title in this market? ps - I don't have much in the car now. I traded another type of car that wasn't my cup-o-tea. Once I repair and paint, I might have $5K in it. Interested in your thoughts while in this crazy market for 914s (for once). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
