The new 73 went back on the road on Monday with the 2.0L FI motor now in place (the one I got from Steve Malmz about a year ago). The weather has been warm enough that even in the morning I can drive to work with the window down.

So this morning I'm cruising up the street on the way to work with Beethoven's 5th Symphony on the stereo and really enjoying the ride. Before I even spot him, I see the flash of headlights from an oncoming 911 that has seen me and is waving to say hi. I wave and continue on my way with an even bigger grin.

It's wonderful beyond words to drive a 914 that is actually in nice condition. I didn't know what I was missing all those years with my poor old 1.7L!

I'm so envious! I pushed my wrecked 914 around to another resting spot last night, and I got a bit emotional. I really miss driving that little thing.

Especially with the weather being so great lately, I can't wait to get back in a teener!

I'll probably be back in my teener hopefully before our next (my first) PCA meeting so I can show it off. Thats in almost a week and a half, I hope it happens. Everyone pray for me

Okay, but next time can we get some industrial strength fans blowing in my direction so I can feel the wind thru my hair? And have someone sitting in the engine bay making engine noises as well.
