Well...I drove to Austin yesterday to look at a 1974 911 Targa with a 1981 3.0L SC engine. The intention was to buy and becoming a Porschaholic with 2 of them. The chassis is in near perfect condition, not a spec of rust. Unfortunately the interior needed a bit more work, plus there were a couple other issues. So after much discussion between my dad and I - we decided to take the engine, and sell the chassis to a guy near Austin who is a Porsche mechanic and wants it.
Couple questions: 1. How much is a rolling 911 rust free chassis worth? I got some prices, just want more opinions. 2. Will the 911 oil tank fit into the 914 well, is it a good choice to use? 3. Any suggestions on a place for heat exchangers? 4. Can I use the 914 fuel pump, or should I replace it with the one from the 911? It looks like I'll be able to sell the 915 tranny, Boxster wheels, and the 914 engine with dual webber carbs to recoup some of the cost. So it won't be too bad of an investment. Gonna be fun! |

The 911 won't be worth a lot as it's a Targa.
I would continue to part it out or just sell it as whole as possible to the mechanic. |
