This seems too good to be true, and it is too far away for me to check it out, but someone here may know this car?

22K miles. WOW!

Seen some detailed shots of it as well. Appears that it was stored in a typical damp NY State garage. Nothing bad, but you kind of see that there is some very minor surface stuff. Battery tray area and shelf need to get refinished. Tried to help him with his vaccume lines, they were abit messed up. Probally would need to replace the fuel & brake lines. Maybe a minor engine reseal and a major detail. Could be a very nice car with some work. Not sure how much the engine drop/reseal & repaint of that tray area would run, but that I think would be the bulk of the expense. Maybe shocks & bushings.. don't know.

The pics I saw were not high resolution, but it certainly looked like the hood and trunk need to be painted. While it only has 22K on it, I don't think the car was babied, cleaned, waxed, tuned and vacumed fanaticaly like most of us take car our our 914s. IMHO its not a museum piece. I highly recommed anyone to inspect it in person to make sure they know what they are getting..Don't base your purchase soley on that low mileage..
