Thanks in advance for thoughts/ideas/opinions

I get the feeling the Hell Hole is worse than stated. 89000 on the odo. Repaint on a quarter or more.

Syas batter box area is in good shape, but I can't see any lip on the battery tray in the photo. Looks like rust to me. the problem area behind the seat on the floor board is also another warning sign. I wouldn't bid unless someone saw the car in person to check out.

Of course the hell hole is worse than stated. I would request more photos of the hell hole and the floor boards from under the car.

just my .02

It looks like it is sagging on the passenger side and if you look in the second to the last photo it looks like the hell hole is rusted out and bent!

I sent the man a message and asked to see it in person. He said no problem. I have his phone number if you want it.

The sound pad in the engine bay has seperated and fell from an excess amount ot water. the lower firewall is likely toast as well as the rear of the floorpans and hell hole as the others have stated. Its been sitting for two years and ran when it was parked. How come no 914 was ever parked cause it quit running? It does look like a complete car though. Maybe 800 as a parts car. I'd go look at Jt's car.

Thanks for all the GOOD advice guy's. I tried to steer the guy away before I ever saw the ad just by the verbage used...

I was like you Curt after looking at that 1 hell hole pic.

The wheels are worth 300-500. Everything else is an unknown.

I'm a spoiled West Coast guy. I would not pay $2k for that. $500-1000 tops...

I'd say pass.
