Tale of two engines
I have an option to buy a 2056 in two ways. One is an Jake Raby assembled, 2056 currently in a 914 that is in good shape and registered. It has approx 1000 miles on the engine.
The other is to have a retailer assemble a 2056 Jake Raby kit for me. The one in the car is ready to go, drive up, trailer the car home or fly up and drive it back. The other will be ready in Nov or so but I can do some minor alterations to it for a price. The one in a car is ready to go, all I need to do is pull it and put my DTM from my other Type 4 on it and install in my car.
Price? The one being assembled is about $500-1000 more.
Give me an opinion?

Jake,
I will get his full name but its Richard in Lubbock. You built it in 2003. He said he just hasn't driven it much...4-5 miles a week.
