What is you price range? Are you looking for a project car or a pristine example?

[codybwillis]

i am looking for something with straight body that runs. does not need to be pristine. the goal is to do paint and body this summer, and an ej25t swap, brakes and suspension next winter.
i have a couple of leads on some in the states, but shipping, plus exchange rate is going to kill us! you have something in mind?

[legendboy]

i always wanted one of these

looked at a bunch over the years (all with "broken body")

[codybwillis]

yep, they are definately a pain in the ass to find anything near locally. tons in the states, but very over priced. considering they were $600 to buy brand new. gotta love inflation!

There is one in the Bargain Finder.

914 (http://www.buysell.com/root/detail/Calgary/Collector_Cars_1950_1983/2216/70862684/1973_PORSCHE_914_2_0_L_Wife_has.aspx)

Thats a pretty tite looking 914, pretty tall $ tho

that looks pretty solid, will have to consider the $4k's. price is not bad, its just alot considering i just had a fairly minty one that got crushed. ill never let that one down.

ouch that sucks... what did you do to get it crushed?

[codybwillis]

the bargain finder one sold months ago apparently.
the old porsche was actually my roommates, being the idiot that he is, left it on the street with no plates while in san fransisco. came back and it had been impounded, left it for more than 18 days at the impound lot... woala, crushed!
