I've been going through my pics to organize them and found these and figured it might be werth posting for those who haven't experienced a console going south. First pic is for clarification of what you will be looking at

Yeah this is something that all 914's need checked but east coast cars MUST be checked. I have scrapped WAAAAY more 914 than I have kept because of hell hole/susp console rot. This car was saved only because I had put floor pans and a sail panel in it about 7 years ago so I couldn't really see not fixing it now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I also have a feeling I'll be doing a few more of these repairs in the future as the popularity and values seem to keep rising. Plus I still have 2 of my own to do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
