This reminds me of my experiences with a Volkswagen Split Window Buses through the years.
My first "car" 1966 13 window bus. Bought it for $850.00 in 1971. Put 20,000 miles on it and sold it for $850.00. My second VW Bus i bought was a 1966 Westfalia Camper, all original for $9600 in 1988. Ridiculous money back then. I remember thinking it was the biggest mistake I ever made. Fast forward to now, and I've seen comparable campers selling in the 40-50K range. Beyond comprehension back when I bought it that they would be worth this much money. So, 93K for a pristine 914 is not so crazy. Look what they are getting for 356's. and long hood 911's. And yes, they are glorified VW's too. Porsche had his finger in all of them. The first Gmund Porsche sports car had all VW running gear. So what?! I like the VW connection with the 914. I think its a better car BECAUSE of it. Those that poo poo the connection just don't get it. All I know is that I'm glad I bought what I bought, when I bought it, because the hobby is getting very expensive now. And, I didn't buy what I have to make money. I bought them because I LIKE them. Dave |
