I have just found a 914-6 that has been sitting in a barn for the last 20 years. I am going back this weekend to look at it again and try to verity the vin and engine numbers. I was told by the owner that the car has a 911 S engine in it and is not a matching number car. This is something I will have to do research on when I find the serial numbers.
So if the car checks out and it is a real 914-6 and the engine is not the original how does that hurt the value of the car. And if it is a 911 S engine it seems to me the engine alone is worth a healthy amount.
Since it has been sitting for 20 years would that indicate that it would need a total rebuild? I believe the cost to rebuild such an engine would be very costly.
Any advise would be appreciated.
