Just picked up a 72 914-4. It's in good structural shape, and pretty complete. I'm waiting on kits to come to rebuild the calipers, and have been going over ignition and vacuum lines. It starts easy and idles ok but won't rev past about 2200 (3000) with air cleaner off. Hoping to get time to check some sensors ect as outlined in book I have by Dr 914 next week. Will write more later.

QUOTE(PanelBilly @ Jul 24 2011, 08:55 AM)  That car needs to be put on jack stands and taken apart. Welcome to the world Billy 914 whisperer I agree. Getting it up on jackstands as soon as possible will help it acclimate to its new environment. At least you had it trailored in. That should help some. It looks like you've got a pretty good start there. Its got its own strap identifying it as a "keeper" so it should be good and salvageable. If mine had come with a strap it might have said "junkyard" or "kill me now" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
