Im Planning on picking up a 914 advertized in the clasified section and if it turns out good I will be driving the car from Florida and driving back to Toronto, Ontario its about a 22hour drive.

Any words of wisdom?

start eating so you grow some extra padding on your ass

just kidding. my only advice is to have fun

and somewhere around here exists a 914 "help list" for people across the country. maybe someone can tell you where to find it

yeah, send greg robbins a PM, he should have a emergency contact list for you...he might be able to email it for such short notice... One more thing.... Hope you have AAA!

First, stay awake. Second, bring tools, fuses, clutch cable, role of elect wire,

100 mph tape, jack, 914 repair manual. Good Luck and have fun..

steal some of those small pillows from the airline. they will flatten out under your butt and back, but provide just a little bit extra for your bum.

Don't forget the cell phone after the CAA card that is the most important thing you can carry in a 914
