It's been 3 1/2 LONG years since I sold my beloved 73 914 2.0 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) to help with a down payment on our new house. In two years I will turn 40 and plan to be a 914 owner once again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) .

Personally, I think the six to six conversion makes much more sense or better yet buying an original six with a hot engine already installed.
Here are the four vs. original six numbers I've come up with: ..........................4.........................6 chassis............3000.................12000 paint................5000..................5000 conv parts.......5000.....................0 3.2L engine.....7500..................7500 915 trans........4000..................4000 5 lug................1200.....................0 Wheels/tires....1000..................1000 ......................26700................29500 orig eng...........(300)...............(1500) orig. tran.........(300)...............(-1000) ......................26100................27000 In the end you have spent about the same amount but the 4 conversion is worth $12-15K and the real six is worth maybe $18-22k. |
