Unfortunately I have to sell my Uncle's Porsche for him. Long story short he had an accident and can't care for himself anymore so we have to get rid of it. I don't know much about 914's and I will try and give as much information as I have. It's a 1970 he bought in 1972 and stopped driving in in 1985. It's been sitting in his garage ever since. I was about to just junk it, but I spoke to a friend of a friend from out of town that gave me a little advice. It's been garaged in Southern California since 1985, so not much rust from what I gather. The interior is not in good shape, the tires are all flat and it's missing the battery. I'm including some pictures of what i could get. I need to get rid of it soon. Thanks

I will get it back to my plastic shop and figure just how much it needs. No idea what made the PO stop driving it. Eng may be bad. My 6 did not pass smog in 1985 and that PO just stopped driving it. This could be the same thing. Brakes work. Needs a full interior, dash except the Tan visors are good. Rats went to town on the rear insulation pad. Need a front chrome bumper as it has a center dent but no intrusion to the front-end sheet metal. Need bumper tops but besides the Hell Hole, hole and a few small dents on the body it is in very good shape for sitting for 32 years.
My 6 was in a garage in So CA as well since 1985 but my 6 was even better shape with no damage to the interior and no hellhole. I guess the heat in the San Fernando Valley was hard on the interior and rubber.

I will post much more on it is a week or so.
