I sold my cockney brown sunroof 912E about a dozen years ago (I got over $12000 for it). I have a 993 Cabrio and a Boxster now, but I mis the 912E.
It was my daily driver, alot of fun, and got great milage. Not the fastest Porsche, but really well balanced. ( I added a better exhaust and Recaro seats.)
I would have jumped all over the $4k deal!!!

Cool....I gave my 912E to my daughter a couple of years ago. Owned it since 1981 and what a car! Enjoy. I have been toying with the idea of getting one and making it a DE racer. Anyone know of any....obviously strip it out and put in a Jake motor(?) so it wouldn't have to be perfect.

I had a beautiful 912E for a few weeks. Don't let it overheat on you, as it can drop a valve guide and fry the motor and in some cases, such as mine, end up in flames on the side of the highway. No joke. It's worth getting the engine dialed in exactly right by a pro. The timing is tricky to set and can effect how cool the engine runs. good luck with it.
