Hi - after wanting one for a long time, just purchased my 1st 914. 1974 1.8 and I love it.

Looking for a reputable mechanic near me - I'm in Southeast PA near DE border. Thanks in advance.

Congrats! You bought a nice one. I know the previous owner. Solid guy, Solid car. Enjoy!

PS:
“Bill” took care of my 1.7 back in the day when I lived closer to his shop. He knows VWs pretty well. Maybe he can help you out.

I was referred to Mr B's in Kutztown to install rear wheel bearings on my '86 930. He had a 911 race car and a really nice 914 in the shop at the time.

Chris Radbill works on Porsches and knows 914’s very well. He’s located in West Chester which is very close to you. He’s worked on my ’74 2.0L.
