I know sixes are going up, but this is a little much. |

We'll see this one again, most likely as a VIN swap ...

A shame. Unusual original color.

Didn't we just see this one a few weeks ago at same salvage yard for $17K? Maybe my memory is failing me.
Is price going up despite not selling? Given what I already have into my POS/4, $19K for a real six is starting to look good to me. |

I suggest "a little ambitious on price" describes the whole 914 market right now. I don't see our cars as a good long-term "investment", especially once the next car-price-crash inevitably comes.
Let the players play. We'll just drive and enjoy them. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Severely tweaked AND it was on fire? Need one of McMark's "body in white" to fix that. |

Interesting how nobody here jumped on the running,
driving 6 that was listed on the S Registry for 40,000.00 a few weeks ago... |

Why pay $40K for a running car when you could get this for $19k and a lifetime of stories out of it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Let me tell you about the time I . . . . . . |

I just don’t understand the logic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
The prices people post are comical. Some guy who has a yard full of 914’s quoted me $150 for a targa top that has been outside since Ferdinand Porsche was still alive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) I know the deal start high go low but dang you wan’t to set the bar that high? Are you on drugs? -Ed |

The add says it was on fire in 1972. We're 2019 now. So who stored this crushed and burned rust bucket for 47 years? Sometimes doesn't make sense.

The last 914-6 hulk they dragged out was bought in 79, have you seen the racks of this place. Rudy Klein was buying everything back in the day, lots he didn't sell, obviously. Here is what was under those racks a few years ago. Attached image(s) |

The price is a little lofty but it's a 6 with number matching engine. There are guys on this forum that have the talent to repair this car. With the right parts it's not really as impossible as it seems to appear.

I suggest we take up a collection and ship it to Brent. He's on the home stretch and once he finishes his /4 he'll likely go crazy without a project like this one will be.
