in average all you'll get for that money will BE a car you'll have to adress issues, may it be of the technical kind, the optical kind or probably both.
and when you dig in deeper, because you notice by yourself or learn here on the forum, you'll hate yourself not having done a full restoration right away.
I have seen so many cars that looked nice or ran nice or even did both… but these were old cars nonetheless and the bad was hídden about everywhere.
if you want to buy a 30k car you'll need a 20k extra on the long run..

good. because good 915s are great to shift. the early gear ratios are nice.

absolutely. regularly give them oil- and filter changes and TLC and they'll go 400k
