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) |

WOW, I now fell very lucky to have found a 914 with very little rust. Nice work.
question: I choose to go with the 2.2S motor, I figured I would not have to upgrade brakes, suspension, transmission nor axles. Money was a issue. Do you see any problems, I was figuring normal driving habits with a romp once in a while in the mountains. I am close to diving it, have not yet,,, Larry |
