My 914 arrived today... it arrived quickly and in good shape. It had a good amount of water in both trunks, so I vacuumed that out quickly. I took several pics while it was still on the trailer to get a baseline.
General 30 min assessment:
Pretty solid car w/ a good portion of parts in tact and functional. The shifter rod linkage cover needs immediate attention, as it's just hanging there. Heat exchangers are gone. Passenger side air deflector is missing.
I'll have to pull the rocker covers, seats, & back pad this weekend to assess additional rust.
Driveability...only drove it about 2 miles, but the pedal seems sticky. At times, it seemed to need too much pedal, but once the rpms got up there, I could let off & the rpms would almost stay constant??? It did idle pretty well, but the FI needs some sorting..so no surprise there.
Functionality,...all dash gauges seemed functional, except the odometer, and the center console gauges don't work. Seat belt buzzer, open door, and flashing brake light all work, assuming that blinking brake light is supposed to come on when parking brake is on.
All in all...pretty decent car ....just needs a lot of TLC. More pics & details later.
