So I have 72 914 worth a 1.7 in it and I’m having a big problem. What I thought would be a new wheel bearings or hub is turning into some serious work. I thought this car was rust free but apparently there is some hidden cancer. Please let me know any thoughts of how to fix this.

Two options:
Grab the snake right behind the head and cut it off. Or get a new tub. I am going to say cancer runs deep on that side, and once in it, will be console, logs, and a lot more unfortunately. But you don't know until you open it up. And see just how far it goes. |

Surprising as it may be that’s the only area I see rotted with rust. |

It would be highly unlikely if that was the only rust on the car. This car really doesn’t have any rust I can see. There are some spots underneath I just discovered that are bad. 1 being my problem with my rear wheel tilting in cause the mount is rusted out. But I am trying to do a thorough check to see how far it runs Attached thumbnail(s)
