sorry about the angle of the picture... I was crying while I took them!
I know I have some work ahead of me, but I am not afraid to take some time and some cash to do the job right. The car is in great shape (truly) everyhere else, so my goal is to make this vehicle a family heir loom. I have looked at some of the stiffening kits out there and appreciate your advice to date. The pictures were taken perpendicular to the longitudinal looking upwards from under the passenger seat area! Enjoy and I will keep you updated. T |

My first 914 was much worse and the PO did some nasty things to "fix" it. The RR suspension console was broken, so they welded 1/4" iron to reinforce the area. The longs had the same 1/4' iron welded down the entire length. All this was stick welded in with holes punched through and everything. The flex of the chasis was causing the much heavier iron to tear the lighter steel unibody to pieces. Very ugly once I got everything torn apart and realized what I had. Hang in there, anything is possible if you stand back and throw $20's at it.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
