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 |

71 and later had galvanized pans. 76 and later had full galvanized bodies.
Agree with and echo what has been said. Suspension pan and rear window/seats. Both are less of an issue with the era car you're looking at. |
