Found rust in my Porsche 914 not sure which route to take....

So my 914 was having trouble starting. I narrowed it down to a wiring problem. I decided to take apart the interior to track down any issues. Anyway after doing that I discovered rust and a lot of it. I knew my 914 had rust but not this much. I pretty much need a new floor pan. I'm also sure there's more rust elsewhere too... Honestly I don't know what route to take. Sell it and wait for a nice 914 to come up later in life? Sell it and get something different for the same money? Keep it and fix it the best I can and drive it till I can afford to do it property? Or go balls deep and dive head first into a full restoration. What do you guys think?

  • Depends on what it's worth to you. You know what it's worth as is and how much it's worth if restored. Can you afford the net difference of all the parts and labor in the event that you may one day have to sell it? That's what it all boils down to. Restoration is normally a lost investment unless the vehicle has some sort of appreciable history or worth. Sadly, most cars do not have that. They only are as valuable as what a buyer will give you for it. Not what we independently value it at.
