Hello 914World, I just joined, this is my first post and I am just trying to understand the market and effort required to restore a 914. My preference would be a 914-6. The Chalon roller on ebay ended at $10,400 without meeting the reserve. No title, no engine, low chance of finding the matching engine and you still need to Undo the Chalon parts, given that what's reasonable for the car in this condition? $12k? $15k? I haven't tried to contact Matt and wanted to hear from the forum first.
thanks for your time, stay safe

Hi Paul-
I’m a newbie as well.
I recently purchased a ‘71 914 2.0 with the idea of converting it to a 6. Rust free, strong engine, Webers, etc. After buying a 911 turboS and a mint 73 914 2.0, I’ve decided that a conversion just doesnt make sense. If you’re looking for a car you can drive and enjoy now and upgrade/restore at your leisure, this might be a fit. I’m in SC.
Send me a pm if you’re interested.
Thanks
Phil C
