I began this restoration project in '97 and it has spent the last several years in storage. I began with a factory six and some of the following things have been done...
Steel flares added (factory) Body dipped and de-rusted 2.7 liter motor built to RS specs w/ MFI 7 & 8" x 16" fuchs New konis leather interior (factory look) brake upgrades blah blah blah... I know if I ever get this thing done it will have a reasonable amount of value and it will somewhat justify the pile of cash that has been dumped into it. However, lately I have been getting the urge to do some more agressive modifications like a roll cage, performance seats, and so on... How adversely would this impact the final value of the car? I am not doing this for the money of course, but it makes it much easier when the investment carries forward some residual value. I'm sure that someday I will get a hankering to do another restoration project and this would most likely provide the seed money. Anyone have thoughts on this? I'm really not in tune with the 914 market so I'd be interested to hear. Thanks, Bob |
