History
Southern California Car
Original Alaska Blue Metallic 2.0
PO bought the car in So Cal in 2006 and sold to me in 2015
2015 on here in Pleasanton, CA.
Rear end had been very lightly tapped and repaired correctly.
Additional repair to front pass fender during flare installation.
Chassis inspected and found little rust beyond the hell hole and battery tray support which were professionally treated with POR-15 and a new battery tray installed.
Metal work completed by an independent metal work guy in So Cal (Milt / Zeke). Have pictures.

I reassembled the interior and got the motor started. I took the car to Don Wise at Don's Autowerks in Campbell to go through a full inspection bumper to bumper. Many issues were resolved. Drove and camped at Rennsport Reunion. Been driven around Pleasanton ever since.

Needs
+Driving
+Sort out carbs
+Battery dies rather quickly (Boxster CDR 210?)
+Tires
+ Ignition wonky

Boxes of spares including matching paint and other parts.

SOLD

More pictures to follow this weekend.

Alaska Blue Metallic is a beautiful color on a 914, don't see it very often in person or otherwise, but I always say the same thing when I so see one. Congrats on the sale.
