Same here. Wife is the same age as the 914-6 but about 4 years older than the project car. I'm about 9 years older than the 6.

Hum,lets see ,my teener is a "73", and I'am "66"
so i guess that means I am twice the age of my 914.
So it should figure I should have another "73" ,maybe a six, 3.7, Oh It's so nice to dream!!!!!!! Got to go the wife slaped me back to reality. Dave

older than both of them.
The only car I've owned that was older than me was my 63 356 Super90.
I'm probably gonna get another 356 as my next car.

Car is 31 - low miles, great shape, nice looker

I'm a New Years baby so on paper, I'm 35, but if you cut me in half and count my rings I'm only 34.

Girlfriend 41 - low miles, great shape, nice looker....

I guess I like the older stuff laugh.gif

Posted by: horizontally-opposed Dec 13 2004, 02:11 PM

We're both vintage 1973, but I'm a late build (12/20/73) and the 914's an early one (4732900193), built in late 1972.

So the 914 wins, but barely... Rebekah came along in model year 1981, which still shocks me from time to time. I can actually REMEMBER 1981 from all the crappy American cars -- which is what got me into VWs and Porsches, and BMWs in the first place...
