Boy, is it clean? 
-rusted in some weird places, like the front trunk vin plate. Looks like faded Adriatic Blue. I wonder what is up with the Sallie Mae plates?

There is some strange rust, the area below/around the windshield will be a challenge.
It is however a 1970 "2 liter", with most of the original FI. Not too many 1970 4 cyl FI 2 liters.

I thought the same thing when I saw the ad earlier this week. 2.0 were not available until 73.

Wow. over 210 transactions and he has a 96% rating. He's pissed off at least 8-9 people in a short time.
I'd guess if it IS a 2.0 it got one after 1973 when they came out???

...looking in the background, I think I see another 914 and other vehicles of interest; so, you'd think the seller "might" know better than to misrepresent the actual engine....considering the spark plug location and air filter housing bracket, it's obviously a 1.7L
so yeah, what a shock he's pissed off previous buyers.
all the rust is expected and I'm used to it, being from the "Great Salt Belt" in the Northeast.

Yup, the Alfa's on BAT. It's been sitting forever, too.

H is selling a Spitfire that reminds me of one I used to have. Mine was a white '75 1500 with overdrive. For all its faults it never left me stranded and got great gas mileage.
