(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) Just bought a huge 914-6 project. The car was one of the factory prototype cars, it is #0031. The car is entirely apart, beed blasted and ready for primer. I have a few things that need to be welded, but I think that will be fairly easy. The car will come with a original 914-6 motor which is brand new. The motor is factory fresh, it was bought a number of years ago from some german parts supply place that went out of business. The cylinders still have the original factory dye in the pistons. My question is, what should I do to it before installation to make sure that it's been prepped perfectly. What should I look to go wrong, it looks really nice, but after 36 years I'm sure that there must have been some negative effect?

Ummm...
Isn't this an ad for the same car for sale? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) 1970 914-6 BODY SHELL Price: $6,050.00 Vin 91404300031. This is one of the earliest 914s we have seen, and as the first 50 produced were prototypes, this car has some weird differences, including a plug on the harness to connect to test equipment, a rear stamped serial number and a different rear panel. This car was never hit but had some rust. Our shop totally cured the rust problem and coated the car with preservative paint. It is ready for you to restore to the ultimate, and possibly own the lowest serial numbered six recently reported! Comes complete with title. http://www.autoatlanta.net/record_detail.l...346014F&-Search sorry about the mondo link, PN at AA is B23888 |
