I thought I would share my most recent project. I picked this car up a couple weeks ago on craigslist. It's a '71 w/ 78K on the clock. It's definitely in project form but one thing that I liked about it is that it is pretty original and unmolested... no goofy PO repairs, all stock parts, relatively low miles plus I love the early style 914 w/ steelies (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) . Its been stored in a barn for many years. It does have some rust but its fairly manageable which is pretty good for East coast standards.
The plan right now is to keep it all stock and just create a nice original driver. Bringing it home... The battery tray has some light surface rust Here's the underside of the passenger long. I was able to jack the car up and door gaps didn't change (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) .... Heck, most 914s I bring home don't even have a place to jack it up anymore. |
