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! |

5 bolt hubs achieved by drilling out the standard 4-bolt hubs, vs a true swap to 911 front end. Related, you will see the spare mounted in the front trunk is a 4-bolt wheel.. so it wont fit if you get a flat. you will need another 5-bolt wheel (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
And yes, looks like some front end damage at one point. I was wondering why the front trunk alignment with the bumper seemed a tad off. Pretty green paint. Photographs well.. There are worse places to start. |
