I did not recommend a 914 tho they make a hell of an AX car....no, can be made into a hell of an AX car would be more truthful. After 12 years of making one into such, I feel qualified to speak on them.
The only difference between 914 & an early 911 ownership is the cost of entry.
The downside ( besides rust) of the 914 is the original motor. The 3 main bearing T-4 is.......oh,what the hell, a POS. Start by replacing that with a decent motor and it doesn't look too friendly cause you still have a long way to go...BTDT. At that, the CSP Miatas still kicked my ass.
