hey guys my name is tom and i live in columbus ohio. i just got my first 1972 porsche 914 1.7. the engine has been converted to carb for some reason, but is runs and drives. it does have some body damage. the left rocker panel was damaged when a tire blew out and someone backed into it with their truck. the damage to the front is minimal. i took some pictures for you guys (the pictures are not very good, it was bright out and they were taken with a phone) i have a few questions and any help or info would be great. i payed $5000.00 for it.
questions-
- whenever i go over a bump the targa top squeeks, is that something i have to learn to love or wil replacing the rubber seals fix it?
-why would someone convert it to carbs?
-how long does it take to remove the engine?
-how did i do????????
tips? info?
