Passenger long looked like it had some welding done to it. Front suspension may be toast as it looked like the passenger front wheel was sitting at an odd angle.

That is a horrible looking thing, each to their own I guess but I dont like that at all

Agree it looks bad, but it is a 2.0L and has 5 lug wheels. All about the winning price I suppose (I'm not bidding)

call me crazy , but i dont think it looks that bad, i kind of like it. If you are not trying to look at it thru the lens of a completely stock 914. I am not a big fan of cutting off the front and doing the slant nose thing like a 911 slant nose but, it actually looks like they did a pretty good job from a distance anyway, so for $2-3K i would buy it, probably clean up the inside and motor and auto cross it . it would have been better if they did the speedster humps like a spyder but this seems more appropriate for a 914, and the top looks like its just set there for some weather protection under the cover, but i doubt you are driving around with it on there like that so imagine how it might look with that off of it, so yea, i would buy it if i were closer and the price were right - but first, lets see the floors and longs.........

I agree! If you take 914 out of the equation, it's a very good looking, well proportioned car. IMO
