awesome buy, ive paid 2x that for a project car that would need some work, I have a rust spot on that car on that rear quarter too, but other than that is a very solid tub , its the one im doing for my build-off contest build, . once you dig in you may find more , but really awesome you have all those records and the window sticker, it tells a story and it says the car had owners that cared, makes a big difference. Good luck and enjoy! get those fuel hoses and lines replaced and get your brakes a working out/flush fluid for sure, etc, then drive it like you stole it!!1

That does look like a good buy!

Could you post a picture of the seats?

Get those fuel lines replaced, brakes done, all safety stuff checked, and have fun!

Unless the car is folding in half, those rust spots add character (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Overall, as good as it runs, I'm pretty pleased with the car. Folks have rebuilt FAR worse 914s.

Yeah that's not terrible at all. There's probably plenty more under the rockers but it's fixable. Floor pans look decent from a distance. At some point you might want to scrape the undercoating off. That's a lot of fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif).

Change the fuel lines!
