Hi - My new 914 project is missing it's right rear wheel arch. I'm looking for an inexpensive solution - whether its a used quarter panel to weld back on or a set of widebody flares. This 914 is going to be a "man-cave" project as its ugly, cut up and unrestorable so I'm looking for cheap and functional over "correct". I'd even take a pair of Chalon quarters if the price were right.

Please PM me if you have either an ugly but usable quarter panel or a set of inexpensive flares. I'd take either metal or glass.

Here's a pic of what I'm dealing with. Thanks in advance.

OSCAR !!! ... you're gonna cut it up ???



I thought you were gonna build a rusty rat rod out of that one !!!

I know Mark...it hurts but between home and car projects something has to give. At least I'm keeping some of it.

Here's my inspiration.

I almost did it to a rusty 912 but there was so much rust and bondo, I was afraid I would cut it into scrap. Sold it for $1,200 instead.

Man, if I had the extra space, I'd grab that 'Tetanus Targa' from you ... yeah, it's rusty, but IIRC, it's pretty solid underneath ...

... and the body isn't going to rust much more than it already has - it has an awesome consistent patina
