Ok, this car has been on ebay before and for whatever reason it seems to be calling my name (well all 914's do that to me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) )

My question for SCCA AXers is, would this be a good base project car to start with for AXing? For the record I haven't Ax yet, I will in a few weeks, and I know me I will be hooked. Hell I'm already hooked (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I have a 70 with a 2.0 that I want to use as my driver. I would like to have a car just for AXing / project car. I know there are AX cars listed here for sale but if I could get it for, say $2500 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) I think this would be a good start? Yes, No? Maybe? On thier website they want $4999 for it.

Just thinking out load. This usually costs me $$$

This line really bothers me:

QUOTE
All the critical areas seem to be solid. The battery tray was removed and the area underneath it had some surface rust and a few minor holes. This area was sanded and treated with a rust killer then lightly fiberglassed, primed and painted. Average job, but there was no serious rust problem there.


sounds like someone is hiding a bad area with fiberglass...I would defin get that car up in the air and poke around before paying any money.

For my money I would buy a car like Mark is selling in the classifieds here:

too bad I have already spent more than that making basically the same car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
