Congrats!...Nice looking car. Now you'll get the onslaught of jokes on already having it on jackstands! The pic with the cooler looks like you have a custom exhaust/header setup..how is it put together?

Very nice 914! Welcome!

very nice looking!! looks to be in excellent shape!! '
welcome to the club!!

Thank you all for the warm welcome
Jim,
The header is a "Hunter" (either Terry or Harry or something like that). It has a custom Bullet exhaust. The guy I bought it from used to autocross it locally and some tracks up north (LA area).
I plan to autocross it as well with the PCA here in San Diego. Hope it does well.
Funny about the jack stands 
I've done nothing but work on this car for the last 3 weekends.

Nice teener! Welcome to the club. You just missed the 914 gang dinner in S.D. last Saturday night.

Sorry I missed it... I just saw the pics from the gathering

PCA Autocross is April 30. Get your pre-payment in before April 27 and save $20.

We have a bunch of events in so cal (orange county costa mesa area) pretty regularly. Stay posted on the board. More 914ers are always welcome!

Welcome. Great looking car, a few performance mods, but it still looks clean and original. That's the way to do it - stealth.
Hope you learn to AX is quickly and start kickin some butt in San Diego...

Once again a very nice car

Nice ride! 
Welcome to the club! 
Posted by: Cloudbuster Apr 22 2005, 02:35 PM
I run in CS, due to non-stock swaybars. I should get stickier tires. Running Azenis right now.
Your swaybars look be stock so you could probably be in CSS.
6 bolt CV joints on the car. Interesting.
Posted by: Oracle Apr 22 2005, 03:25 PM
Mark,
The car is setup to run in the CP class... The 6 bolt CV joints is a nice upgrade from the PO. He must've gone through a few stock CV joints 
I'm changing the tranny and engine fluids this weekend... It should be ready to run by the end of the month, hope it comes back in one piece

Congrats and welcome--you..uhmmm...got a real good paying job...right?? Cause once you start you might endup like myself or Mueller, or about a 1000 other crazies on this board---just cannot stop modifying or changing or updating or......................................
Congrats again...very nice!!!
Posted by: Cloudbuster Apr 22 2005, 03:33 PM
Was the PO an MD with initials GS?
Posted by: Oracle Apr 22 2005, 03:37 PM
Funny you mention it... The 914 has taken over most of my free time and most of my available funds. My girlfriend and friends are not very much amused 
They just don't understand 
Posted by: Oracle Apr 22 2005, 03:38 PM
The previous owner was B. A.
Not sure what MD means... ??
Posted by: Dead Air Apr 22 2005, 11:22 PM
MD = Doctor? Can we get some shots of the motor, carbed? Where's the console? Welcome, these a**holes taught me how to buy a 914!! And, boy ain't I glad, or am I?

Howdy Neighbor! What a nice ride. San D is starting to grow again we should do a fun run when I get the six up.
