I bought Bruce Jenner's 914 (the one he bought new back in the day). It's in okay shape, I guess. Definitely not great. It's fairly straight and doesn't have much rust. I have documentation and bought it knowing it was his car. I'm not into restoring cars, I just bought it because I've always wanted a 914, not to restore, but to do some light customization. Question is: Do I customize it? Or sell it and get another 914 for me? In other words is it worth selling? It doesn't run, it definitely needs a lot of work. It would cost about $1,000-2,000 to replace since I live in Idaho and would have to travel and probably tow another one back here to replace this one. I know this is vague, but I'm only looking for vague opinions. Does the fact that it's Bruce Jenner's 914 make it more valuable enough that I shouldn't mess with it and just sell it? Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) i don't think Bruce Jenner having owned the car is too big a deal on resale. Anybody pay more because he/she sat in it? Just saying...I would rather have a better condition car owned by a no body. Fame will not retard rust. Good luck though with what ever you decide. It is always interesting to find a car from a celebrity....just not worth any more to me. |
