Hoping some of you can check out these pictures and let me know what you think. Supposed to leave at 3:30pm to inspect the car. It has some of the typical 914 rust issues in the trunks and battery/hellhole. How bad does it look to you? The price of the car is $7xxx. It's a 72 1.7 with a lot of miles on it, but currently in good running shape. Is the price too high? Do you think a sanding and respray of that trunk will fix the rust or will it possibly need metal replaced?

Please check out the pics and give me your opinion....

Thanks for the replies. I didn't go look at the car. I myself thought the price was high after seeing the pictures. The 74 I sold last year for 5k had less rust, but the paint wasn't quite as nice and it had some aftermarket parts on it (link to pics in sig). Kind of hard to judge the value of these cars!

I definitely would rather spend more up front for a nice, rust free car, but where are they at? I've tried contacting a few people selling in CA but they blow me off. I assume it's because they don't want to deal with a long distance transaction, but who knows.

The search will continue.
