914 up on the (auction) block in OKC, 1974 with Empi-like wheels Options

[MBowman325]

I just called information on a '74 914 that's due up on the action block again on Wednesday (after failing to sale on Saturday). About all I got outta the guy is that is sounds odd when idling and it looks like it was painted with a paint brush. The guy admits to knowing nothing else, including on opening the "hood".

The asking price is 2250 and it came from a dealer somewhere as a consignment sale.

While I really don't have the money for it, I figure I'll go look at it and see what we've got. He says that "it's not a rust bucket" and the interior looks good.

My concern is that it'll look too good to pass up (excluding the paint) and I'll want to buy it.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I'll see if I can take some pics on the cell phone today (won't have time to run home for the camera)
