Count and Nick you are both correct. No rust will be the hardest thing to find. Believe me, the '73/'74 2.0 is by far the best models within the 914 range. Go find yourself a '72 tailshifter and a '73 sideshifter and drive them both. You'll see exactly what I mean. There's a reason they went away from the tailshifters after '72. To call the shifter vague is being polite.
Nick it kind of depends on what you're after as far as engines. If you're not after originality, no 914 engine will top a 911 engine. The sound, the power, the driveability is all better with the 911 engine. The 914's did handle like a go cart. Couple that to a 911 engine and you're going to have a lot of fun for sure. The 4 cylinder can be made fast also but it just doesn't have that sound.
