I'm sick...I'm a 914 addict. Going to pick-up a widebody tomorrow...hopefully, it will be as described. Question is "Why" and "What am I going to do with it!" Maybe it will all make sense once I get it home.
Pictures to follow after I get it home...unless I'm too embarassed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) of what I've bought. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

So is the body solid and straight? You wouldn't happen to want to bring it up here would you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


The driver's corner was hit pretty hard. Someone would have to replace the trunk, trunk lid, driver's fender, fiberglass is cracked in various places due to the heavy impact. I can't imagine that being worth it to anyone...unless, you're from back east..those guys and gals do some amazing restorations. I'm not that energetic or talented.

I bought it, like Kevin says "parts sale money comes in handy." I figured I'd retain any pieces that I could use on my 75 project, then flip the rest. My guess is once I take off the valuable parts, no one would want the chasis and I'll be forced to send it to the wrecking yard or (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) it. Too bad, the car once was a pretty good looking 916.

At this point, I would trade it for a decent running 2ltr engine, otherwise it will have to vaporize. I'm a bit crowded already....
