Far be it from me to deny my wife a 914! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
She loves Ravenna Green. I'm open to everything from a fully sorted car at a "no questions" price to one that needs work...as long as the longs are solid and the car doesn't need serious welding. Would also consider a trade of my 73 2056 which has been totally restored. Thanks... |

Thanks guys...
I had a fellow 914world member do a PPI on the CL car Beach mentioned in OC. It's shows nice in pics, but has some issues in person. Seems overpriced for the current condition and the owner doesn't want to budge from 17K. Here's what I learned. I'd love to hear if you agree. – The owner (who btw says he's never heard of 914world) was unwilling to let us take the rocker covers off and inspect the longs. The hell hole and underside appear ok, but not being able to look at the longs with a 17K price tag is scary. – The passenger door has been repainted and is way (way) off from the rest of the car. My painter tells me it's difficult to match Ravenna Green since it's so neon. The rest of car is wearing a second coat, but there's a lot of crazing and chips. Need to factor in a blast and repaint. – Seems there's a smell of raw gas in the car. I asked if the plastic fuel lines had been replaced and he didn't give a clear answer, so I guess not. My inspector didn't want to test drive the car with the gas smell, so I don't know how it drives or stops. – Although the interior looks good, the dash has been recovered and there's rips in the driver seat. – Lots of little things like a chipped windshield, bent trim, age-cracked tires, dryer hose and non-standard stuff in the engine compartment, FI issues (hunting during idle). Given those things, what do you think the car is worth? Not that it matters since the owner is standing firm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif). |
