914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Great to see an old friend

Posted by: McMark Apr 23 2018, 09:40 AM

Just took delivery of an old friend -- Jeff Stroud's car dropped in from Texas for a few little repairs before it goes up for sale. Seeing it come off the transport pulled up a lot of great memories, and a lot of sadness. But I'm glad for this reunion and glad to help being part of making sure she goes to a good home.

Great to see you, Jeff... wub.gif

Yup. His wife moved to Texas and brought the car with her, but it's mostly just sitting and ran into a starting issue. I'm charging the battery, but I suspect the DME relay as usual. Gonna give it the once over and take care of any little things it needs. Then a bunch of pictures for the sale.

Very nice car, and it has got to be a blast with that 3.2 motor! Perfect combo with the narrow body.
