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.

My first 914 was Olympic blue. I've loved the color ever since. Your fog lights appear to be from a 75 or 76. Steel rims probably from a 71 or 70?.. The antenna hole is usually seen on the driver side from what I recall. You've got an interesting car and absolutely worth saving. Best of luck with it and hey: post some more pictures!!
