Given this former Cali car is coming up on 50 years and probably not always taken good care of, I am lucky to have this level or rusting. I went after it with Ospho, wire brush and clean rinse. Will be applying POR 15 to this area. Question: my gut tells me the well adhered tar is sound and is not hiding any rusting. |

When I was looking to buy a 914, excessive and fresh undercoating was a no-go for me. I'd rather a seller leave all the bad exposed so a potential buyer can make a fair assessment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Too bad many sellers simply spray on "undercoating" to cover up any/all questionable areas. When buying any older machine requires a thorough inspection especialy if you are paying the long dollar |
