Everything done to date was with the intention of keeping the vehicle forever. i.e. front wheel wells have individual vent holes drilled and champhered rather than the standard chop job.
As close to NO RUST as you will find in a 914. ZERO RUST in longs or hell hole.
Lots of cool stuff:

I have over $10K invested to date.
List needed to complete.
1) replace engine gaskets
2) replace caliper o-ring (other side was leaking initially and I foolishly only replaced that o-ring)
3) tires and alignment
4) paint
5) rubber
Current tags and registration. Car is VERY fast and runs and shifts well but will need to be towed due to old tires, engine oil leak (Local mechanic recommends removing engine and replacing all gaskets) and front caliper leak (have new s-caliper o-ring).

I wish I had bought this here.
Looks like the flipper is now listing the car on Ebay.
Who knows how/where the car is being stored until it sells.
