A friend of a friend put the word out that his next door neighbor was unloading a 72 914. I need another car like a hole in the head but thought, I'll go look, might be some good parts. Husband is sick, they've owned it since the early 80's. Very nice lady. The guy bought a bunch of resto parts and took the trim off to paint it 10 years ago. 70k+ in original mileage. 1.7 liter car. Very original with the exception of the red paint instead of the original silver metallic which was done early in the cars life. I was thinking parts car before I saw it but it is in too nice of shape. I'll finish what he started over the next couple of years and then decide whether to keep my 73 or this one. Very little rust. She asked me to see it when it is done and maybe go for a ride. Hard to say no to that request and gives me some incentive to finish what he started.

Keep the red or go back to silver??
