He wants me to have it really bad, but I have 3 BMW 2002tii's and a few other cars and nowhere to put it. It's really clean. I'm tempted. I know a lot of '02 owners have also owned or own 914's.

Ebay linky

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Craig (possibly a newbie here)

Couple other places he can try to sell it.

classiccartradeonline
recyler
can post it here and on the pelican site

Can also park it in area that gets high exposure. Bound to get some calls. Buying from a used car dealer... alot of people are skeptical of that.

Odd thing with these cars, some sell real quick, others I have seen for sale for a real long time. Just a matter of finding the right buyer. Like the other guys said, take a photo of the battery tray and area below it. The rear trunk without the carpet. Maybe clean up/touch up the rust area by the inner door vent. Thats a common spot. There is a foam block on the back of the vent that retains moisture. I took them off every car I had. Water tends to sit in there. Engine paint, well don't think you can do much about that. As long as it runs good you should be fine. Pass on putting fuchs on it. Your putting more money into that you may or maynot get back. Good luck!
