> The restorers holy grail.... or not?, Galvanized 914's.
Would you buy one? Fully repaired and hot dip galved, ready to paint.
In a heart beat I hate rust, and want to drive year-round.
Damn, I'd pay 5k for a galvied, epoxy primed tub [ 26 ] ** [56.52%]
Thats cool, but I'll shoot my own epoxy if I can have it for 4k [ 2 ] ** [4.35%]
I'm a puss and will NEVER EVER, drive wet. It's only worth 3k to me [ 2 ] ** [4.35%]
You're a dumbass, you can't hot dip a 914 tub! [ 10 ] ** [21.74%]
I wan't one but it's only worth .......to me. [ 6 ] ** [13.04%]

This is a purely hypothetical thread. You see I love my teener, and, I'd like to use it as a daily, cause I'm sure I can get 35-40 mpg from it. I live in northern Utah.... so It would see it all, heat, rain, AND snow, I'll be using a set of the new diamond shaped studded Hakka's for winter. Nokian
I get it, some of you think that this is a stupid thought, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) but I'm one of those sicko's that loves snow driving, so I'll deal with the ridicule. Have all the fun with me you can on this one, turn it loose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) Oh, If you don't think it will work, why?
