Older repaint in the original L99K color is a “10 footer” with several dings, dents, scratches, peeling clear coat, etc.
Brakes work but likely need attention.
Needs clutch cable adjusted or possibly replaced.
Small oil leak at oil temp sender (likely an easy fix with new / additional gasket). Design flaw / very common 914 issue.
Wipers, fresh air blower and horn not working. (may be easy fixes ex: tach was inop and simply needed wire switched to the other coil terminal).
Needs J tubes and topside heater blower hoses. NOTE: Heater blower does work and heater flapper boxes present. May need 1 or more heater cables replaced.
90% tread on tires with minimal dry rot, but tires are extremely old and possibly out of round
