Hi All, I am new to the world of car restoration and 914's. While cruising c's list I found a deal I couldn't refuse, and the rest is history. She runs, but she's rough. I trailered her home, drove her throught the neighborhood a few times then put her in the garage and have spent a few weekends chipping away at the cosmetic flaws. There's a lot of rust. But not in the places that I keep reading about (hell hole, floor pans, etc.) Currently, I'm torn. Do I put band-aids on the boo-boos and spend 7 months out of this year driving it like I stole it? Or start the grueling project of disassembly, rust repair and re-assembly? In the case of the latter, I won't get to enjoy her for a couple years... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Sorry to hear its too far gone.
I agree with the guys, if you want to make a profit. Steering wheel seats instrument cluster switches, relays, relay board, fuse panel someone right now is looking for interior bolsters wheels suspension sway bars etc.etc. The list goes on forever, you can make good money if you are up for some work.
