Well, I guess I can say I owned a 914 for a couple weeks. 1976 red. I bought it on E-bay with the stipulation that the owner gave a 30-day money back guarantee. After some delay as it was at a mechanic getting a tune-up, etc, I finally had a chance to give it a close inspection. Too much rust on the floor and around the rear suspension for me to tackle. I am definetely disappointed.
Back to square 1, although there are not too many option within a decent distance of Raleigh, NC. Any suggestions? Craig |
