I was able to fix the front suspension so now it's a roller! I pulled the battery out and the tray has some rust holes in one corner but is still mounted in there firmly. Should I patch it up or pull it out to see what's going on underneath?
I'm not sure what is going on with the engine yet. I found the air filter and starter in the trunk along with the speedometer (84,000) miles. Keep in mind this is my first 914 so this next question might be dumb. in the trunk I also found a part that goes on the right side of the engine. It looks like a fan or something. The one on the left is still mounted in the car. Can any of you tell me what that is? Just curious. I'll put a pic of left side and battery tray/hell hole. I have not had a chance to inspect the rails for rust. Anyway, I know you all like pictures so here you go. Attached thumbnail(s) |

I also removed the front bumper. It was a task because the last guy put in smaller nuts and bolts through the original threaded holes. I also need to have a key made. Is the door lock matched to the ignition on these cars? And if anyone wants to get rid of an extra set of wheels and tires near the Central Valley of CA that would be awesome. Or if someone wants to offer me an obscene amount of cash for the car I might think about selling this project. (This fulfills my obligation of listing car for sale per the wife). Lol
