That's the rear sway bar showing in the above pic.
Heres the Interior floor. Or should I say garage floor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Attached image(s) |

Here it is on wheel dollies and being supported by
the timbers on jack stands. I can't get the passenger door open, but I will. Attached image(s) |

I cant watch this carnage anymore...you gotta do what you gotta do...I think I will go away for awhile and try to ponder the meaning of life...and how any person could allow this to happen....to any 914, much less an LE car.

Sorry Jeff. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) If I honestly thought it could be saved
I would. But everytime I take some thing off to see how far the rust is something else falls off. I took out the drivers seat and the pedal cluster fell out. I can actually see the gas tank (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) The real sad part is I still have to pull the blue 71 out of his yard, and so far it looks to be in much better shape, I think it can be saved (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) - Garold |

Man, I think you redefined the word "bittersweet". Got to give it a proper burial. What a drag.

That is officially the worst rust I have ever seen. And I thought I'd seen it all with my last parts car!
I'm with the rest of the group Garold... go ahead and shoot it. At least you will save a few Sawzall blades... this one should come apart really easily. You can't save 'em all! |

Thanks for the pictures. (I just wanted a reason to use the picture smilie before). It's worse than you described in the earlier posts.
I don't think you have to worry about taking it apart. Just get (or make) a big sifter and sift the good parts off of it. Sweep up the remains. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
