I have been in Vw Club here in Nebraska for a long time and i am a certified CAR WHORE.

I got a call this weekend about a 1974 914 that guy drove up from AZ to nebraska 5 years ago and has been sitting in a barn since...

he sent me these pics..

says it will start up and go still - but needs helio-coils? and has an intake leak? I then ask about fuel injection and he says it has a electronic fuel injection but it has a carb..

he is about 5 hours away... in email said it is targa top , has a fender to replace the bad one.... new tires ( 5 years ago )

115k miles

he wants $2000 ish - good starting point for a summer project - or should i run and run fast?
