nice looking car but LOTS to do on this, that motor looks while original , that it has not been out for a long time if ever, and the amount of rust in the engine compartment and hell hole concerns me , and even more concerning is the sellers being defensive about the Dr's comment, with is valid in my opinion. i chose not to commend in his sale thread but boy did i want too. i feel there is a lot lurking under the surface here. rust bubbles on the lower forward corner of the outer door , etc. love the color but experienced 914 owners know what i am talking about, we already have another person here that is unconvering some serious issues on a car that now hes finding a lot of stuff/rust etc.
i would say tread with caution......
- you are nice and diplomatic, maybe too much here...

Great color, of course. Yeah for $47k I'd expect the engine/engine bay to be "sorted"
Fixed passenger seat? I agree, should have pictures of the longs, floors, trunks, and hell hole.
Is that overspray I saw on the rain tray or was that a reflection?
Ravena Green is my favorite 914 color! Back when I first started driving , there was a national level SCCA autoxer in Louisville KY that had a 2.0 in Ravena Green rocking real centerlines solids w slicks under stock rolled fenders. He would drive to events and absolutely slay everything else that showed up.
Of all the (many) 914's I've owned, the closest I ever came was Berber Yellow with a white interior.

This car has been listed on eBay on and off for the last couple of years for $57k. Shockingly, it never sold at that bargain price.
