My four teenagers and I would like to start a project of building a VW Beetle or a Karmann Ghia or a Porsche 914. Looking for a straight body that doesn't require any work and the best value replacement parts. We want something that will have some performance once it's completed.
I have found a 73 914 for $1,000 but needs a new fuse box and possibly all new wiring. The price looks good but I wonder if I would get a better return on doing a Beetle or Ghia instead. The appeal of the 914 is the mid engine layout for excellent balance. Can someone help me decide?
