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.

I’d look around a bit more for rust. The underside looks like it was painted over recently.
What does it look like under the rocker panels, hell hole, and under the carpet (especially behind the seats)? |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) It also looks like it was hit on the right front. The metal underneath looks distorted and it’s often why a car will have a 916 front bumper. |
