 That whole gas cap assembly is attached with 8 small bolts with a gasket under it The overflow tube attaches to the gas cap assembly and goes through a hole to the street under the gas tank just aft of the front suspension cover plate The plastic piece goes under the strap that holds your gas tank in. Under the overflow tube is one of the rubber blocks that hold the gas tank. They are molded to fit the fenderwell and the slot fits to the seam on the edge of the tank. I dont see an expansoin tank or charcoal filter though. There is plumbing for it there.... Clear as mud? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Good score, Have fun! |

Sweet deal. Welcome to the madness.
That's the same shift knob I have on mine. I like it too! Good luck on getting things back together and running. Take your time and do it right the first time. I would drop the engine and trans and do some in-depth cleaning and replace seals, gaskets, etc. Others here will have a better list of things to do before starting the engine up. For sure fuel line, hoses, points, plugs ,fuel filter. Again welcome, and good luck on your new project. Tom |

I would certainly try to repair the fender (we would be able to do it) to preserve the unibody integrity and the originality of the car. Whenever a fender is cut off of a 914 they are just never the same again, as it is hard to execute a perfect undetectable job.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) A year or so back we had a major controversy involving someone who thought Yeaman Auto Body should have done a better job of concealing the butt welded repair to their left front fender. The guy was pretty pissed as I recall that Yeaman had done this to his Dad's car. Yeaman is one of the best body shops for Porsche work around. They really know our cars. We have become a society of remove and replace when it regards our cars. A skilled body man could repair that. |

What you have there could be repaired. As George has hinted, your body is your frame. When you cut out sections and weld in new, you do weaken your body/frame. |

That black bar is the stock front sway bar look in the wheel wells and you'll see the drop links that are attached to the front A-arms. Good deal on this car ya got, we also picked up a car with front and rear sway bars for a project. |
