Hi, yet another question from a 914 rookie. I found a '73 2.0 that is in really good shape, except there is a patch of rust rot under the battery tray (around 3"x5")- a screwdriver could be easily pushed through. Is this a red flag, or is it a relatively easy (and hopefully inexpensive) fix? Where could i get this kind of work done and done well?
thanks for your help! |

It depends on how far it has spread. Just having a rotten spot under the battery tray is not too tough to fix but you need to find out how far into the hell hole it's gone and whether or not it has infested the suspension and long. Pics would be very helpful.
