It's mostly built of pure VW components. A friend of my mother's had one, and when she saw how much the interior looked like the interior of our VW 412, she went out and sold it immediately.
That having been said, the 914s seem to be more popular now among enthusiasts than they ever were when they were new. And they are pretty unique, despite being (at the time) the best-selling Porsche.
Since it is VW-based, and air-cooled, it shouldn't have nearly as many problems with storage as a more sophisticated water-cooled car. Flush the oil and gas, put in a new battery, and there's a really good chance it will fire right up (in a cloud of rapidly disintegrating exhaust parts).
