i think brian long wrote another book about 914's.... i bet that is just a new cover?
I have the earlier edition. One of the best 914 books out there.
At Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Porsche-914-914-6-Competition-Cars-Softbound/dp/1845840305/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1197167288&sr=8-3
I'll have to check it out...
Hey JP. All is well here. Adjusting to life with a retired wife. Not as much time to play cars anymore. I been watchin' you though. Get that engine back together! And Merry Christmas.
You got it right Bruce. I been watchin you too. Lookin' for another Punkin?
ya. Looking for the right one. I like the power of the Miata's supercharger but the 914 is something I just can't get outta my blood. The right one will come along after the Miata sells.

I have that book. Good one.
Hey Jim, been hitting Ashland a bit lately...
Amuse, Morning Glory... man, what a breakfast. Just got back from that neck of the woods yesterday.
Let me know next time you come this way. You found two of the best spots but there are others. We really like a small town with amenities in such beautiful country. Full of lots of old retirees like us. The Porsche folks here are tourers, not trackers, but that's ok.
I got that book for myself at a Day-After-Christmas-Sale last year. Its really good, everyone should have a copy.

What they all said ...
A good mix of 914 background, history, production through the years, facts/specs, with a nice selection of photos. It should be on every 914 enthusiasts' bookshelf.

I'd like to see the one on the left re-issued....in English

Having books translated is an expensive proposition, and a poorly translated book can be very much more detrimental then not having a translated copy at all. It is likely that the publishing house (they make this choice, not the author) did not think that the book sell enough to cover the cost of translation.

My Dad was a professional German translator for 20 years for a company and also did side jobs. I don't think it would cost as much as you think (he's not living the caviar and champagne lifestyle if you know what I mean)
I got mine direct from the publisher in the UK.
