Let's save another 914, and get it decent., Probably need advice from you old school 914 folk Options

So here is the rust on this one. It's a 75 cali car it's entire life.

Get the worst over to begin. Let us take a look at the hell hole. It was solid, and even passed teh screwdriver/hammer test....

*until* it soaked in metal ready a while... then the screwdriver test started picking out giant holes which you see here. It is still soaking, and has been on/off for days not to eat away more to see what metal is truly left. Next step is a grinder or non-hand tool of sorts to break deep into the pitting and see what truly is through.

They botched the door handle shave so bad they had to fuck the body up and smash it down to recreate the fender out of plastic as you see.

That is nothing under the bondo was a 1/8" layer of plastic or structural adhesive shaped up and such.

UGH


Anyone have a rear fender or Two complete with door handle cut out?

I think I may actually need a set of doors too, I think these doors may be ruined. I need to pull the panels and peer inside.

This is going to be an odd sawzall.


I just talked to scottyb and asked him to take a look here when he had a chance, since it is pretty much certain he will eventually end up with this shell in some sort of sacrificial primer to make look super pretty again.
