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 AC is aftermarket, so unless you really want one, i'd get rid of it.
They're ugly and the huge hole in the front trunk doesn't help things either. Besides that, the car looks pretty solid! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hi SirAndy, Off course I want to get rid of the condenser in the front trunk but then I have to find someone to weld in a piece of metal sheet since welding is not my thing( I can always learn to) If I remove the AC dashboard console the central instrument console won't fit anymore but I can make a new one (in real leather) |
