Looking for 4712908713  Group: Members Posts: 144 Joined: 20-February 18 Member No.: 21,910 Region Association: None  |
I found this '71 914 for $2,500. It runs but has some issues with the linkage between the engine and the transmission. It's still using the efi system. It also has rust cancer in the rear trunk. Is that a big deal? I haven't gone to see it because I need all the help I can get. It has 4-lug fuchs and the interior is pretty nice. Any suggestions? Is $2,500 a good price? Roughly how much would it cost to repair? I'm not worried about cosmetic rust, I just don't want something that will fold in half on it's maiden voyage. What would you pay for it? Oh, and one more thing... it doesn't have the original engine. Thanks everyone!!!

No offense intended, but are you all out of your mind? Buy it!! A running 914 for $2,500 is unheard of these days. Buy it....take it home....put in a garage if possible....maybe work on it a little to clean up easy stuff...worth more in a few days. If longs are shot then forget it but otherwise a bargain. Maybe not to bring all the way back but if I had $2,500 I would buy it....do my best to clean up....and sell for more in a few days. I don't think you can get hurt at $2,500 unless it is bending in the middle. If you want to restore then $2,500 is a great entry price these days. My two cents.
