    Yes. Supposedly it gets modified (pared down?) to work with the standalone. That was a few steps ahead of me.

    Thanks Paul. I was 7 when that song came out, so I have no recollection of it. I wish it wasn't so (that I feel I have to part with this). Being 7 was OK.

    Just curious if this ever sold, I'd love to see this car completed. If I didn't already have a Porsche project this would be mine. Good luck!

    Sand rail guys could potentially use it. That's probably a bigger market than the 914 hybrid market. I think I saw one cross ebay, but don't remember what it ended up going for.

    You don't have to put the WRX motor in it

    Yup. My priorities have shifted. I've been trying to sell the thing for awhile, but just get tire kickers that talk a good talk. It's not hurting me to sit, but it sure isn't helping me either. I'd rather see someone finish it.

    I have a friend who has a Subaru WRX motor for sale for this project! Good Luck..

    Sent him a message. It looks like I either need to:
    -keep plugging on this to where it's more sellable
    -or finish it and enjoy it.

    Bump. May have a buyer tomorrow. But still up for grabs while I figure out what I'm doing.

    I hope the buyer works out for you.
    It will make someone a nice car someday.

    Not sure what that buyer is doing. I think he was looking to grab tasty bits for other people's cars but may not take enough of it for me to consider it worthwhile. It's looking more like I'm going to go forward with building it since I can't seem to sell it.

    Still have it. I don't think the guy from Florida is going to follow through.

    The ebay auctions didn't fly. And yes, this has been posted in The Samba and 914club for quite some time. The ebay links weren't on my Samba ad though.

    I think I will find another down on its luck SVX to get this thing in running/driving condition without killing the bank. I just missed one for $900 that ran and drove.
