Back in October I bought my first 914, a 1974 model in Ravenna Green, 1.8 and 99% rust free with FI. After one week of driving I loved this car and decided to get her refurbished.

Here's a few shots, still have a lot left to do but at least it's looking like a 914 again.

Many of you helped me with parts, questions, and tips and I really appreaciate the help.

Hopefully the sail vinyl and drivers door will be finsihed soon.

Your car looks AWESOME! Congratulations!
I hope we'll see you at the Tail of the Dragon in October!

very nice....I like the way you ended the Porsche negative stripe at each fender lip instead of wrapping it around the fender lips....

I'm a big fan of green. Old photo, but the origins of my forum ID.

As much as my wife indulges me, I don't think she will ever allow a green car, though. I'm holding out for the green bike.

Looks awsome. Very clean!

Thanks for the welcome and compliments.

Looking forward to a run around the Dragon, although we are having rocks slides that are closing the roads way to often.

I think the black sail vinyl will really give it a better look. My neighboor asked me today if the car glowed in the dark......I love this Ravenna, it really screams 70's....
