914World.com _ 914World Garage _ PPI in Elkhart, IN

Posted by: mudfoot76 May 25 2006, 09:07 PM

Would anyone in "The Region" be able to help out someone aspiring to join our illustrious non-club (or are we a real club now?)?

The car is in Elkhart, IN. A '71, 1.7L that has "some" rust. It is listed on the PCA car mart for $4495 OBO.

Here are some preview pictures - should I tell the guy this is fixable or to run away?

I have contact info for the potential buyer and seller. Please PM me if you are able to help in the area.

If this car looks like one that should be avoided, please chime in. I've told the potential buyer about this place, so in the worst case, he'll be able to find another one...

Thanks everyone!!!

If no one closer can do it I could go, but not until after the holiday weekend. It is about 1 - 1.15 hour driver for me.

Ouch, I haven't been out that way for awhile! I have family in Hammond and Chesterton. My mom and her 7 or 8 siblings were raised in Hammond.
