My fellow teeners! Be nice to a new member! Maybe he can host an event and use his 1,800 sq.ft. shop.

Maybe this can help you what
and where to check on your new project

Rust locations

Battery tray

below battery tray, towards passenger seat, IE Hell Hole

opposite side of engine bay behind drivers seat

trunk floors, remove everything to look

longs, particularly under the Hell hole and Drivers side, need to remove rocker covers to view

inside cab floor at fire wall, near pedals. you really need to remove floor tar to view

any obvious bubbles in the paint

this is a partial list

there is going to be rust, how much??? you will find out.

welcome.
I see you mention:
"air cooled novice just a porsche air cooled Novice"
you have a Vintage VW past ? old Fiat ? Or maybe Corvair ?
vintage VW knowledge will give you a good start on this new 914 project and the forum can help you with the rest, plus do not forget to buy some books so you look up things when needed, for example the Haynes for 914.
Good luck !
PS do not forget to post pics.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) easy...type 'pelican parts 914 buyers guide' into the address bar. Click on link that will be displayed, read info. Especially the portion on rust prone areas. Buy a Haynes manual. If you plan on running carbs, buy the CB Weber tech manual.

Hi I'm new to this. Sorry how do I post searching. . . .


The word SEARCH is on the top right of very page. Under the date. Looks like this: "Help Search Members Calendar"

Click "Search", that takes you to another page, where you fill in the blanks, etc.....

Under that you have links for "my controls" "new posts" etc...

Searching accurately will take some getting used to and can be frustrating, but you'll get the hang of it.
