13:13 mark, voice in the background: whoever said “people don’t want a VW engine on their Porsche” didn’t sound very knowledgeable about early 912s. Except for ‘76, 912 engine were Porsche engines (356 Super). I hope that person learned a bit more about this 912 in the year since the video was made. :)
Don't let yourself be scared that that's 912 I think Mike from Wheeler dealers the TV show he has a 912E and I'm pretty sure it's his favorite Porsche and he's a Porsche guy you can drive the thing at 10:10 fix her up and enjoy her we're watching
If the body is in as good shape as it appears I think it's a decent deal. But you guys dragged it on those FUCHs wheels?!!! Do you realize they're probably worth $500 ea (if they are real not repos)? As far a engines you've got many options; stock 912 4 cyl; a polo DOHC 4 cyl (made out of a 911 6 cyl) or a hot rodded 912 pushrod motor. A friend has one its as quick as my 911 E and probably handles better. Good luck with the build.
