Okay Guys and Gals, What do I look for when looking over a potential vehicle? I'm looking at a widower's 74 914, her husband just past away in May and she doesn't know how to drive a stickshift so she's getting rid of her husbands baby. It's a beautiful car, Black on black 4 bolt Fuch's and a single carb on ? motor. No exterior body damage, No major bondo and interior is superb! He really took care of this car and it show's. So where do I look for rust and all the other nice hiding spots.

Yup rust.....
Also make sure some asshole doesn't call the widow and tell her it's worth a fortune.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Too bad about the single carb....that's the first you get rid of. Either back to FI, aftermarket FI or go with carbs that work better....like a set of dual 40 webers. |
