First off, some info. 1970 914-6 Chassis. Acid dipped. Left outside last winter (not by me). Getting a 993 non-VarioRam 3.6, Wevo 915, GT Flares, all the fun bits.
And the first order of business is sorting out the chassis. Starting with the rear trunk. These are some freaky looking reinforcement plates poorly welded in. I'm guessing they were for a rear sway bar. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pinch.gif) Attached image(s) |

yes, but the rustholes are *not* from the dipping, they were in there before. the dipping just made them show up better. also, the surface rust you see now is due to the fact that the tub had been sitting *outside* for a year after it was dipped ... not good by any stretch ...
