New to this forum but I've been around 944s, 924Ss, Boxster and Cayman forums for years.
This one is going to take some time. Purchased for $900, non-running but otherwise complete '73 914 2.0. Certainly just beyond a viable restoration car but probably okay for what I plan to do with it. Here's some highlights of the tear down... On the trailer going to the house. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Beside the replacement fender there was a rust through in the hood molding channel. I cut that material out prior to attaching the fender. Last night I cleaned up the cut out, fabed up a patch and got that welded in. I think I'm about ready to start dressing up the fender, wheel well and front panel. Probably going to use POR 15 on all that.
