Going to look at this 1973 914/2.0 next week.
Looking at this picture I am wondering if there is a problem with the suspension. Is the front cranked up and the rear drooping/collapsed?  |

Front looks right, back is jacked. Generally if you follow the line at the bottom of the doors and fenders to the wheels, they will bisect the center of the wheels. I believe that is approximately stock height. Front is correct, back is too low for some reason. Needs eyes on to figure out what is going on.
Is that the Carolina squat on a pick up truck? |
