There is a outside chance I might be picking up a mid 80's carrara Cabi for not much money. Not holding my breath, but i would like to be informed before and if I decide. Is there typical areas on the 911's like the 914's i should watch out for?
Thanks |

The water would sit on the rear window causing the rear window corners to rot, which causes the parcel shelf to rot and the rear seats bottoms.
Front suspension pan from the battery acid, which was mentioned, and then usually the gas tank support will need to be done at the same time. Floor pans, and rockers. |
