Purchased this very nice 914-6 conversion in Dallas a couple of months ago. Been enjoying it so did not have a chance to get it up in the air to look under it until I did the oil change last weekend.
Of course I am partial but it is almost a magazine quality car. I see that the prep for the paint on the wheelwells was not done well so the undercoat is coming off in the wheelwells. I will be cleaning off the rest of it this winter and will re-paint the wheelwells (no rust - amazing). I took a bunch of pictures and I noticed the quality is not that great (dirty lense). Beautiful car and it runs as good as it looks. The guy that put the car together has a nice collection of cars and races a 914-6 in the CVRA. I was lucky to hear about the car as it was not being advertised so I was just in the right place at the right time. Rare for me... 1974 914 – 6 Conversion White '74 914, --no rust ever--painted by Dan Butts - German Technology. He's now retired and the business closed.
