Thanks, for your interest in the 914-6. There is no rust under the body of the car nor in the structural parts, doors, etc. there are small surface rust bubble spots at the bottom of the targa bar, around the windshield opening and door handle area. The paint is over 20 years old and while people love it the way it is, I would repaint if I was keeping it. I assume you would repaint, also. It is a very nice driver as is, but a repaint would make it a very nice street show car. I would also have the driver's seat cushion recovered, and the Weber carbs rebuilt.

Well I'm not sure I understand Mike's cartoon pantomime & there, but that's really sad!

Holy bat shit Batman! comes to mind, if you recall the old TV show!

You're lucky the sucker didn't snap in half on the way to your place. Maybe the PO wasn't aware, but the PPI should've found that - even if by only cracking the bottoms of the rockers open & shining a flashlight up there.

Well, at least a real 6 will be worth the cost to rebuild those longs!
