Okay, I followed this site for some time already before buying my first 914.It took some patience and everyone I asked( that knows about cars ) said not to do it but I think I finally found a decent one (wich is not easy in Belgium since they are very rare here).
Just tell me what you think of it ( don't be polite) and okay, it's a '75 with the BUB's as you guys call it (allmost all the 914's here are reimported Americans)and also a BUS( big ugly spoiler) but it's a 2.0l ,until now I didn't find any rust(some superficial spots) and and it's been technically restored by a PO from California. Engine, clutch , brakes , muffler, etc. I'll give you a pic already, but tomorrow I'll have more pic's in detail and a lot of questions too. How do I post a pic anyway and how big can it be? |

The interior looks rather good (the dealer I bought it from put in another dash top because the old one was fried) The air vent grilles of the AC are missing( I still have one that I found in the door pocket but it's chrome plastic : looks terrible) The AC doesn't work. It has been uncoupled but the ventilator still gives a lot of fresh air.Maybe I can put in some steel mesh grilles and paint them black. Any suggestions are welcome.
