Saw this on my way out.
Looks like a small fire in the engine and toasted the grill. I don't know why the HE and exhaust was on the passenger seat. Normally no one is allowed to dismantled anything at the yard. I got the VIN for Sir Andy.        |

Not model year correct heat exchangers in the interior. Caught on fire before they were installed?

Looks like a nice car!
Whoever left the exhaust pieces sitting on what looks like decent seats should suffer 40 lashes with a solid antenna mast! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ninja.gif) |

Probably totalled, sold to the insurance company, figured it would likely be scrapped, "not my problem any more"... Though myself, I'd'a probably tried to buy the salvage. |

I'm 30 minutes away so If someone who is not local buys this car I'm willing to pick it up and tow it to my home for a month of FREE storage....gives you time to coordinate transport.
CONDITION: Must be a 914world supporting member. Oscar |

Thanks @saladin
The exhaust was NOT in the interior at that point! That looks like a NICE one to save. Too far for me but... ValcoOscar made a hell of an offer! Sometimes the auctions have a buy it now like this one. https://www.copart.com/lot/44475814/clean-t...-914-nj-trenton That one does not interest me. 14.5Kfor a wiped out project! That's a ROACH in my book... |
