I would like introduce myself. My name is Jeff. I live in Kansas City, MO. I haven't even thought about a 914 since I was 17 years old when I got my first Porsche the 924S "Parts car". I did a lot of work on that car. I sold that this past year and I sometimes get bored and look for Porsches. I remember 914's being really cheap a few years ago. I saw this kind of rough 914 "Project Car" on Craigslist. I decided to check it out. It was much more than I could take on it needed floor pans and some other body panels. Anyways I going to start my search for another Porsche. Whether it be a 944 turbo or a 914 project.
Where should I start to look for 914's? What are some signs that I do not want to mess with a car? Give you background on what I have done. On my 924S when I got it the car only ran on 1 cylinder, it had no fuel filter or air filter. Had a serious vacuum leak. I cleaned the fuel injectors by hand with a 9 volt battery and carb cleaner. I then changed all the fluids myself. I did some body work but nothing more than using a dent puller and some body filler. I have done some electrical work/interior stuff. I have also replaced the transmission in that car. I'm not an expert on cutting out rust and replacing body panels that need to be welded in. I can handle motor work as I have worked on many motorcycles, and cars alike. What kind of car would I be looking for? Sorry for the long post. |
