I need a little advice. Any comments are appreciated.
I took a look at a very clean 1971 914. The car is completely original, down the the original fuel injection. The only exceptions are: 1. Replaced front bumper 2. Replaced front hood 3. Repaint - white over the original Gemini Blue. They also painted the door jams and trunks grey. The car is very clean in nearly all respects. 105,000 original miles. Driven, but, garaged and clean. The car appears to have had a very minor front accident. The front bumper took 99% of the impact (I saw the original bumper). There is a very, very minor spot buy the right headlight box that tells the story, if you know what you are looking for. Even then it is hard to see. Just a little ripple. Rust - I couldn't find any. I know what I am looking for, and spent an hour hunting. None, other than very, very minor rust on the right rocker panel. The hell hole, and longitudinals, floor pans, and trunks, are all look perfect. Thanks, Steve Attached image(s) |

I would pass at $6500, it looks like it has had work done in the front and there is a patch in the back of the trunk. I think you could do better for that price.
Who knows what is under the white paint job |
