Update on my dad's new 914 project. He was finally able to pick it up from the PO and bring it to his house. While he was at work I gave it it's first bath in over 30 years. It definitely cleaned up nice, but there is some cosmetic work to be done. It spent 30 plus years as a shelf in the PO's garage, so there's some dings and scratches here and there. A little bit of surface rust on the back corners of the doors as well.

Fun fact, the tires are original to the car. All four tires are period correct with date stamps for 1975. They will most definitely NOT be on the car when it rolls down the road for the first time.

I managed to get my head inside the engine cover (very up close an personal). Haven't determined if it's a 1.8 or 2.0 yet, but will take Kazoo-Mal's advice and look at the intake gasket. What I have determined is that it does have the factory fuel injection and if we try to start it it will automatically burst into flames. Most of the lines are cracked. Just going to get a complete fuel line kit for the whole car and redo it all. Dad doesn't want to mess with swapping it over to carbs.

I'll post additional updates as I get them from my dad. He most likely won't start digging into it until the winter when landscaping slows down. Hoping that come spring it's ready to fire up for the first time.
