Hi, all. I bought a 914 as my first car at age 10, and I'm ready to get back in the 914 game. I'm now 22 and am looking for a solid project.

What I'm looking for:

Year: Doesn't matter
Engine: Doesn't matter
Condition: Complete/Close to it.
Rust: As little as possible! A solid car is a must. I don't mind doing a little bodywork, or welding small patches, if needed. Nothing too crazy.

Budget: around $4-6k for the right car.

Basically, I'm just looking for a solid car that's not too far gone and could maybe, just maybe, be something that I could drive as I work on it. I don't mind traveling, either

Thanks!



Edit: I also have a really clean 1978 Honda CB750, if anyone is interested in trades. I'm located by Kingman, AZ. Thanks again!

It would be a good idea to let people know where you are located.

That CB750 is a great bike, had a 1980

I"m about to list our 73 2.0
there's a few pictures in my progress thread.
The engine is disassembled, the
case dipped and the oil gallery tapped and plugged. The crankshaft turned down
I also have another used 2.0.
the car is disassembled, seats out, trunk lids off.
located 20 minutes east of Buffalo.
5 Fuchs wheels 4 tires with no miles, 20 years old.
My contracting business got in the way of my project. Need to move on.

I will be listing my 74 2.0 soon to make room in my garage.
The only draw back is that it has rust.
It is a complete car though, I have all the parts minus the front windshield. I have a bunch of metal purchased from RD and some patch sections.

Look for it in the next day or so. I will have pics of it as well.

Thanks
Kevin
