New to the forum and the car. Was pointed to it by an aficionado on The Samba— I have a ‘59 Karmann Ghia. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=723793
He suggested that the people on this forum were the brain trust for all things 914 and that I should vet one here that has caught my eye on BAT: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-porsche-914-113/ Any insight would be appreciated! |

Nice looking car... there's plenty of time to put eyes on it by arranging a PPI. And congrats on your lowlight, that is a beautiful example. Good infection! I see you took the same approach with that purchase. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Owned by a member here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...mp;viewid=21814 |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Owned by a member here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...mp;viewid=21814 Haha, yes I took the same tack as it previously yielded such great fruit! Thanks for your response and kind words. Yes, I would be interested in hearing from anyone in the Scottsdale area who would be willing to look it over (for a fee of course). A couple of my knowledgeable friends believe it took a blow to the front end. I would be interested to know the ramifications of that impact. The seller is amenable to such an inspection and is even willing to put it up on a lift! |
