WooHoo! Welcome.

Now open your wallet.

You are sick! Why do you want to put your family through this......never mind. You're as sick as the rest of us & we welcome you to the "home".

Pics would be great! We don't care how great or ugly it is - it's a survivor (so far).

Welcome.
Congratulations on the choice of a 914. Other car is super sharp too.

You are just in time to get your 914 life started with a Ramble in Huntsville AL.
Put this on your calender. October and close to your area as a hot lady's breath, it the Rocket City Ramble so check it out with Rusty.
No excuse to not attend when you have that yellow car if the 914 won't go.

See the Ramble info at this link.

Yes, I didnt paint it though. I bought it, but then decided to sell it.. I have ADD I guess.

On the turbo, thats a whole LONG story, but bottom line is poor dealer service....

Posted by: messix Sep 17 2008, 12:45 PM

it looks like the fire started up front, what could the dealer have done to screw up and cause a fire like that?

Posted by: mambodave Sep 17 2008, 01:18 PM

OK , here are the awaited pics. The car is to be a track toy...

Has AC (going to come out) along with all the other non track needed stuff. has minimal rust, and great candidate I think.
