My 76 2.0 has little rust ,( battery tray @ passenger floor under the seat do to large window leak). However the desert heat has done in all the rubber and heater hoses Etc. the wire is also in bad shape. I guess near 40 year old car is just needy. I hope to find a 914 owner in central Ohio when I start to reassemble the car as to see what goes where. Well just need to get back to work!

Heheh! I wager rubber is cheaper and easier to replace than rusted steel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)

For what it's worth, the heat isn't really responsible for rubber dying out here - it's the dryness and direct sunlight (radiation!! Arghhhh!!!) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

The rust or lack of is plus in this car. I should have it ready for the media blaster this week. 914 rubber is going to get some business next month.
