First time poster, with a big question. I've been looking for a '74 914 that the kids and I can enjoy with a budget of around $10k. We're fond of the bright colors, with orange being the preference. I know these cars are prone to rust, and found a "cheap" example with some issues about 4 hours away.
This car has unknown mileage, needs interior work, has a running 1.8 (compression and leak down stats unknown, and has visible rust in one of the pictures. It's orange, which is original, and can be purchased for $2,000. Would repairs exceed $8,000 and blow my budget? Pictures attached..... Attached image(s) |
