I have the opportunity to trade my 914 for a 100% original and complete 64.5 Mustang convertible. It is in need of a full restoration, but is complete. I have not made up my mind yet, but on paper the value of the Mustang is actually more than my complete 914 with a bad motor. When complete the Mustang will be worth 4-5 times what my 914 will ever be. I doo all my own paint and body, so the resto will be parts only, the parts are all avaialbel and actually much cheaper then 914 parts. I'm leaning towards doing it.

The Mustang is a very early production car with a straight 6, it is an auto which is very rare.

Whats everyones opinion, remember I was thinking of getting out of the Porsche game anyway.
