914 Value, NAR6 Options

[djm914-6]

Over the past few weeks (the time I havn't driven my car), I've been wondering what the market would be if I sold my car.

Any idea on what I could get for my 1970 914/6 2.0L conversion?

It was built from a damaged factory /6 so it has all of the right parts. Upgrades are Turbo tie rods, Turbo valve covers, K&N air filters, Cibie H4 lamps, euro f/r lens', Rich Johnson motor mount, '70s vintage LeCarra steering wheel, 16x6&7 Polished fuchs, Corbeau Forza seats (plus stock seats) and a fully carpeted interior including firewall and rubber floor mats.I probably have... $15k into it now. It will need some exterior rust repair of three fenders and paint to be really nice.

No, I'm not activly selling, but if I could get enough to put towards a CW /6, I would consider it.

TIA,

If it was built from a 4 cyl car, about 2/3 of an original 6. They seem to sell in the $12-14,000 range (Ebay)with nice paint, so I'd guess $8-9,000 if your had the little problems fixed.

There was a original 6 that needed paint awhile back. Mechanically A1. I think it went for $8,500 on the board.

I would have to say it's a case by case issure when talking value. Cosmetics and the Little Things play such a role in value. And I think 12-14 for real sixes is low, I have not seen nice real six sell for that in a while. Low 20's for a nice six stock or modified is not going to surprise me.

Car sounds sweet, but with a 2.0 six it's a hard sell. I would say (without seeing the car) you would still be able to get north of 10k, but the market is so soft right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) And you metion rust which alone is going to scare off any buyers who want something that is Done and they dont' have to monkey with.
