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! |

Here is a picture of the area in question, this is one of the most serious places to look for rust. This picture has repairable rust through that would be an easy fix in my opinion. Others may not want to tackle it but I would rather fix this than one that went through the long.
