So yesterday I picked up a roller, its a 76 missing the engine and the transmission and carpet and thats about it. It was this guy's project car and he was going to turn it into a -6 conversion. Its spent 15 years inside a garage, covered. I picked it up because I want the 5 lug setup, and the 911 front suspension that it has, along with the cookie cutter wheels.
Before I saw it I had thought about cutting off a couple fenders that I need for my '74 roller project car. However now that I've seen its condition I feel really bad about cutting it up. The paint is good, the only exterior thing missing are the bumpers. So I figure it would be a great "rust free roller" for someone out of state who doesn't have to deal with the 76 smog crap. On the other hand I'm not totally set against having a sawzall party and getting good body pieces to people who need them. I just can't do it at my apartment (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) Maybe I should hav made this a poll.. "Keep it together and keep another nice 914 on the road" or... "Part it out, its a 76" Comments? Ideas? -Tony Attached image(s)
