Some of the other threads spurred this question along for me, figured it might be neat to see what people had to spend to get into the game. We're talking about the purchase price for a 914 project, lets just say something that needed to be towed home.

If possible, format your comments like so:

Year of car and model (i.e. -4, -6)
Year project was purchased
Rust: little rust, medium rust, lot of rust, or ungodly amount of rust
How complete was it
How much did it set you back, purchase price only, not including transport charges etc.

One picture of the car in it's purchased state, and another with it's current or finished state if you want.


I'll go first


1971 914-4
purchased in 2016
Medium amount of rust, structurally sound
very complete, it's all there just dirty, faded, torn and dried up.
$1100

How I got it
