I have a 1974 2.0 914 that I have owned since 1980. It has been sitting for years and I am now losing my garage space and need to do something soon. I have too many other projects and don't think I have the time or resources to bring this car back to life. Of course it has the usual 914 rust but it is all there. I really don't know what this car is worth and would be looking for some ideas of what to sell it for. As soon as I can figure out how to add some pictures I will.


I think this link to photos should work

My impression; this car is very rough and will take a significant investment of time and money to bring back to life. That said, this thread shows where the 914 sits after the flurry of interest and appreciation in our cars. If this were a 356 or an early 911 there would be no question of saving for restoration. A ‘74 2.0 stands in the upper tier of 914 desirability and yet the collective response is that this is a parts car, not a candidate for restoration.

I don’t mean this as critical; it is simply my observation of where the 914 market stands as of early December 2021.
