First, housekeeping, I am new to Porsche and this site. Is there a thread where I should introduce myself?
Now, my problem. My 914 has rusted through the metal panel located under the spare tire. From the top of the car I can see the suspension. Can this be fixed? Does anyone know of a source for a new panel and what this panel is called? Thanks, Jason |

Yup, almost everything can be fixed if you have the time and motivation. Skills can be learned and there are lots of pieces from donor cars that can be used. Of course, $$$$ is always a substitute.
In any case, don't worry about rust in the trunk, look for it in the longs and under the battery in the engine bay and right side suspension console. welcome to the club and ggod luck (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) |
