I have acquired a 914-2.0 from my father which I believe is a model from 74. Its been garaged for 15 years and hasnt been started since. Its currently blocked in and covered with a bunch of old garage junk. Where is a good shop in the Bay Area to get this car road worthy? What is a guesstimate on costs? I would like to maybe drive the car next summer.
Problem areas I saw include: Battery box rusted and area around it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Leaky battery removed 14 years ago. Sticky creeking pedals Grinding shifter Passenger exterior door handle broke and removed. Also maybe a smaller steering wheel for a six footer? The shift lever hits the knee. Ill try and have pictures at a later date once the garage has been cleaned out. Thanks |

Update:
50% of garage cleaned out. This is literally a excavation project. Stuff was piled up to the ceiling! With everything covered with gravel from whoever did the roofing last (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Not the best pictures.... but once more stuff is cleared away Ill get better ones. Can you spot it? http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010049.JPG There is a vehicle in there! http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010048.JPG http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010043.JPG http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010040.JPG Battery Tray http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010035.JPG More of whats left http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010047.JPG Again http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010039.JPG http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010044.JPG http://home.pacbell.net/troyw/P1010036.JPG |
