Hi all,
New to the board and not yet an owner. Looking to get a "toy" and have always loved the 914. Was hoping there would be some advice as to what to look out for when inspecting a candidate. Do you have any particulars you would recommend get close attention or types of questions one should ask? Thanks in advance and I hope I can post one day with a new ride. Cheers, Tumalo 00 AS/MB/MB Boxster (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Sometimes when I'm driving though Missouri or Arkansas, I see these old cars in fields, covered in rust. These things were made of THICK sheet metal...
I wonder what it would be like to turn one of those hulks into a street rod. -Rusty |
