I saw this 914 on FB marketplace in Stockton CA $500. Looked pretty solid from the outside (glass intact, minimal body damage or rust visible. but the seller sent a pic of the underneath side of the car and the bottom is all rotted out. What a shame.
It was stripped of all electrical and drivetrain, seats, etc. ......basically been parted out.
The idea occurred to me, that it would be cool if there was a way to mount the upper body onto a complete new pan / frame.
Like the kit cars that you buy the body and it goes onto the VW bug chassis.
That would be a great way to save some of these cars.
I see posts online around the world of guys re welding all kinds of sections that blow my mind, how much labor of love is going into a P O S car.
my $0.02
