I am considering purchasing this project 914. I am concerned that rust may have been covered up by a rhino lining or similar spray application at the hell hole. Does anyone have any knowledge of the car or any advice as to what exactly what I should be looking for when I go inspect the car in person?

If you go out to look at it, use the factory jack to jack it up. Do it on each side.
IF it lifts the car it gives you a better look—if it doesn't—run away. |
