Here's the deal. I bought this 72 914 for the chrome bumpers for my V8 project with the intention of getting the car running (PO just put rebuilt carbs on a rebuilt 1.8) and flipping it. I bought the car with no title, but I have gone through the hoops and expense and I now have clear title and tags until of Oct. of 2009. The guy sold it to me as a "running motor" but I have discovered the motor is stuck and won't turn over. He swears it ran 5 months ago when he put the rebuilt carbs on. The car has practically no rust...just a little in the hell hole. Longs, trunks, floor boards are in great shape. The motor is extremly clean and looks like a rebuilt...painted tin, no grease yada, yada. The wheels are "interceptors" I believe 6 inch and have a great offset that allows a very wide tire under a stock wheel well. Windshield is cracked. I will include a nice set of freshly powder coated bumpers with the car (no chrome bumpers).

Anyway, I have few choices.
1. Sell the car as is
2. Pull the motor, get it running and sell the car as a running driver for extra $
3. Part it out

I would prefer to get my investment back out with option 1 and not invest any time into the car. If that doesn't fly then possibly option 2 or 3.

I would prefer not to part it out since this car could be a great little car.

Price as it sits: $1181
