QUOTE(SirAndy @ Dec 4 2021, 12:39 PM) QUOTE(thetaxca @ Dec 4 2021, 11:36 AM) - zero rust that has 128K miles - seeking advice on wanting to maximize my investment - There is no such thing as a rust free 914. All that means is that you haven't found it yet, but i can assure you, it is there. - Since you are looking at a 60 year old car as an investment, my best advice is to clean it up nicely and flip it immediately and try to squeeze as much money out of it as you can. As soon as you start "improving" the car, even with reselling in mind, you're throwing $$$ down a black bottomless pit.

"Zero rust"?
There is a reason when the sail panel vinyl is missing on a 914. The most unlikely reason is that it came as a "non appearance group" option. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) If the car has little rust and runs good, than my advice is: Keep it, enjoy it and invest in some cavity protection or leave as is and sell it. Cheers, Arno (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/up.picr.de-24260-1638981592.1.jpg) |

Ditto.
George says there is no 914 ever w/o any rust. I believe him. There are those where all rust issues have been corrected. GN Oh- I'm 76 and while I do it more slowly, have no problem getting in our out of my 914 or my Cayman S..... QUOTE(Arno914 @ Dec 8 2021, 11:39 AM) "Zero rust"?

I would be interested in the 3.0 and 915 if you pass on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I could even offer you a set of good 4 bolt fuchs, bolts and caps as a part payment. |
