Sounds like you've made up your mind...or it has always been made.

All the nice words make me want to keep it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
2 years ago I did spend $9K fixing up most of the niggling stuff (new alternator, tensioners, restoring heat exchangers, oil leaks, etc etc) - but still didn't end up driving it much. Of course the same could be said of my motorcycle. I don't know.. I guess we'll know if I end up bumping this thread in a year! After owning 914s for 20 years, it would be weird to be without one in my garage! Final pic.. my original '74 Creamsicle in disguise, from 1995: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.haphazard.com-11334-1476839785.1.jpg) |

I don't think holding on to it will cost you much.... then again, if the money in the bank will make you smile more.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
