Been offered a beach buggy and a Porsche 914 engine!

[AxlFoley]

A mate of mine has a GP LWB buggy sat in his lockup, he has decided to get rid so has offered it to me, he said it needs work but does come with a Porsche 914 engine, that has never been fitted, but he was told it was a good engine when he bought it 4 years ago!! it was originaly an injection engine, but i dont think it comes with the injection setup.

I was just wondering howhard it would be to fit the engine in the bus? i'm guessing i would need a set of twin carbs.

Also what would be a good price, if i bough the engine on its own??

Thanks

Mark

Imo, a good price is something you and yr friend are both happy with, ask him what he would want if he would sell them seperatly?

I sold a swb gp tub last year for £800, un-drilled and in primer, so that should give you an idea of what the buggy is worth. I would be interested in the buggy but it would end in the big D

I might be intersted in the buggy if you're not. If you only want the engine and your mate won't split them, maybe we can do deal on them.
