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! |

I zoomed in and it looks like plastic. You can see it coming out of the firewall to a rubber hose. Have a look when you get it home. I’d service the CVs and make sure the boots are good. And if it were me I’d also service the shift rod system. It has bushings that wear out at the worst times. |
