First thank you everyone for responding. It has been some time since I've used traditional forums, most of the general stuff has shifted to Facebook groups but the most in-depth and knowledgeable people are here.
Your post gave me more motivation than anything! I daily a '12 Golf TDI so I am looking for a crashed donor that is alike where I can use parts both for my car and the Porsche. Never even thought about Go Fund me. It would definitely raise the level of responsibility on my side to get this build done right when others people money is at stake. I was also thinking about video documenting the swap. One maybe two videos at most. I hate those build series on YouTube milking the projects.
