(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Congrats Troy! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Yeah, that was a fun day!
Yeah, this 914 is really nice. Just little things to be sorted really. I pulled leaves and rubbed dirt away from around the hell hole area and just kept seeing and feeling nice smooth white paint! Yeah baby! Gotta love that! The interior is in really nice shape too. Carpet is new and really nice. I like the tan/black combo, it looks really nice. I felt only a couple of rust flakes along the bottom of the doors around the weatherstripping channel. This is an almost/almost rust free car. Both trunks are sweet as well. Attached image(s)

Check out the console. factory installed with correct heater lever, gauges are in really nice shape too.
Good job getting the brake lights to work Troy, glad that was an easy fix. We beat the seller up pretty good, but he was no fool. He knows what 914's are going for. Never the less, I think Troy scored on this one. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) Attached image(s)

This shot doesn't do the engine bay justice. Everything is in proper 1.8 L-Jet order with a red-top Optima. If I remember correctly, even the tray gutter tubes were all intact. Very nice - unmolested car.

Another victom (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif) he is ours now fellow clubbers (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) In all seriousness, if Troy hadn't bought the car, I might have.
I like the non-polished Empi's on there. Very nice looking for sure. It sits VERY low, Troy had mentioned maybe even raising it an inch. Might not be a bad idea. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) |

In that last picture, you can see the dual exhaust, I don't know who did it, but I really like it. True headers from the heater boxes into two small turbo looking mufflers. Someone cut and curled back the right side opening to look just like the left side. Very nice, very clean and sounds great even with a blown muffler. Cheap, easy fix.
Here is a shot of the drive home. Sorry, the picture got screwed up? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) Attached image(s)

It's a sweet 914 Troy. You are a good owner for it too. More time at that guys house would have seen it continue to degrade slowly. You saved it! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)
