Thought I'd ask you folks as you are the most knowledgeable on the cars. I have a restored 1974 model with a 2.0. I am wondering what I should ask for it as I need to sell it. Prices seem all over the place. Hagerty values it at $23,700 - "Excellent" as the condition for the car. Pics attached, looking for opinions.

Car runs and drives great, no engine/tranny leaks.

thanks

Few more details: car originally had AC (components removed, except inside blower, still have the old stuff), dual weber 44's, carb cam, flat top pistons (like European car), new shocks, tires, ball joints etc.......

I think that AC on the 914 is like a swimming pool on a house. It neither adds nor reduces value as some people (myself) consider it a plus while others consider it a negative.

You indicated that the AC components have been removed. If everything has been removed and any cut up sheet metal replaced / repaired, etc. it is essentially back to original. If, on the other hand you simply removed the compressor and some other parts then it definitely becomes a price deduction. For the guys who want A/C they face expensive repairs getting everything back to working order. For those who do not want A/C they face repairing any hacked up metal from when it was installed.

Its all in the details!

Best of luck.
