I am a long time 911 guy and just jumped into the 914 game several months ago thanks to some other board members. I am reconstructing a 914 and purchased another to complete some of the missing parts and plan on selling off what I do not need, but am wondering what has value and what does not? I already sold the stock radio for $50, and had someone not told me I would have just thrown it away? I also see items like visor mounts going for $30 and stock mirrors going for $40 on eBay?? I have items like the stock lug covers (the little plastic covers) and do not know if there is any value to things like this? I just want to make my money back and maybe a bit more to help with the restore of my other, but I want to make sure I do not discard items that others may want. What are the parts that I will be surprised have value - like visor clips??

Thanks

how are the suspension console/ears? I know someone needing those... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

upper and lower dash, targa bar(above the back glass), chrome bumpers, good calipers, good, used shocks, sway bar... it's all got SOME value

early door panels, etc... we need pics to really help


also, GOOD(I mean PERFECT) shift knobs, bring INSANE(assinine even) prices...

if mine was perfect I'd sell it just to make some coin.

Post what you've got on the Club's classifieds & look for the WTB (Want to Buy) listings.

How bad is the donor car?

If the car looks nice, DO NOT post puctures of the whole thing! (see the "parting is such sweet sorrow" megathread) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Thanks Wayne! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif)

Yep, I'm needin' the rear suspension consoles if they're not already rusted out.

Just chop on the red line (both sides, inner and outer).

Thanks!

like I said I'd save them all like stray dogs if I could... but if a 3/4 dead car has to be sacrificed, I'm ALL FOR IT... it's the 90% complete runners I have issue with cutting

It's a '74 1.8 (I think) - sure about the 1.8, not the year? I'll post a pic. The shift knob is in great shape on top, but is broken around the base. Can't get it started (did not try real hard) and the body has a ton of surface rust but I have not fully determined how bad the rest of the car is. I did remove the rockers and it did not look terminal - rust hole underneath the jack hole. What do you think??

The interior would make major coin. It is very nice.

Dash top is worth 150-300 to the right buyer. If it is perfect.


Door panels are worth 50+

Seats (If they are nice) are worth 100+

backpad is worth 100 nice....

Looks like really nice interior...

Windshield is worth 100+

hoods arnt worth much...

Engine's worth a couple hundred.

Trani's worth 100+

cv's 50

tail lights, and front lights are about 25 a piece.

doors arnt much...

side mirrors fetch 50 a piece sometimes.

Check if any mods are done to the suspension. THen that will be worth something.

IF it has sway bars, those are 50-100.

Did I miss anything?

Post more pics of it.

Good luck!

that's a nicer interior than most of us have... traga bar above the back glass will bring 200 easy if it's in good shape(NO cracks)

gauges are clear, that's worth some $$ too...

calipers are worth $40/pair or so...


and yes, it MAY even be salvageable for someone willing to put some time into it... if the longs and hell hole aren't TOO far gone...

I don't know if the bumper tops are in good shape..... but if they are... they go for quite a bit.

Wonder why I know that?? LOL
