Hi, first time poster here, was hoping you all could help me out.
I looked at a 914 shell today (asking $700). It's in very fair shape and has probably been repainted as there is what looks like a pretty crappy weld line behind the seats (see first link). Can someone confirm that this is a fix? I guess below the weld line was rusted? its hard to tell exactly how much steel was replaced. The rest or the car looks OK. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/teow1t8hq803f8r/...VGHihT0Tma?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3xunird9cnvacn9/...Eimz9hOFZa?dl=0 |

Thanks guys!
Googling for “firewall” finally led to pictures of the area and the seam is indeed original. Hmm, might have to buy it now. |
