That is way more than surface rust. I would say no based on the poster's use of the caps lock key - those people can not be trusted. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Well, not always.....could be bad eyes too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
When my Dad was alive he used to do everything in caps so he could read it as he typed.

However, in this case I would tend to agree.... and ....what the f is a "914 S Group"!!?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
The guy may just not know about 914s, doesn't or does & is puffing, or whatever?

But you'd have to REALLY look this one over & buy it as a project if you have the skills, time & budget to fix what all it will need done. (BTW Nathan, my all caps was for emphasis! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) )

Also agree with the hidden rust issues & why converted to carbs, etc. - all things that lower the value on 73-74 914-2.0s.

PS - here...download & use this when you're looking at 914s - even when looking at these online evil-bay "deals" -

I may smile, but it is no joke. Avoid all-caps ads on ebay, craigslist etc - you WILL be better off.
