I just traded my 94 jag for this 914. I traded sight unseen, with cash on his end. I honestly expected it to be a total loss, but had a slight hope of saving it and making it a road worthy part time daily driver. Well there’s no chance of that. I just would like to gain you folks approval that this car is not worth saving. This is the second 914 I’ve bought, the first was for the drivetrain and it was very very rough. I’d love to get a 914 that I could drive, but life has been in the way.
Here are some pictures of the car. At the moment my plan is to part the car out. Opinions? The car supposedly runs by the way. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

If you aren't scared of a little fabrication fun, a lot of drilling holes and a few hundred of spot welds... save it.
The build thread in my signature covers how I did all these pieces. I'd say my car was the same or worse condition. It's saveable with patience and money. Restoration designs has everything you need. Ravenna Green car is pretty cool too IMO.... |

Cool I’ll check it out, it will be inspiration for me! Dumb question, but it’s going to be on blocks for awhile in the driveway till I get more garage space. I don’t want to do anymore damage by jacking it up wrong or supporting it wrong. How should I go about doing it? Jacking and supporting points I mean. |
