My first restoration project. A 1967 Bug that belonged to my Father-in-law. This was the car my wife learned to drive in. biggrin.gif

My first 914. Tangerine with ~70K miles when I bought it indirectly from the original owner. Started life with me as you see then morphed into an AX and eventually TT car.

Next up was my '73 2.0L in Delphi green Metallic. Brown interior. Again a street/track car.

Next up was my '70 914-6 with a 2.7L RS motor. A sleeper car. Narrow body with fenders pulled. Street tires were 225x50x16s on 7x16 Fuchs on the rear. For track duty it had 205x50x15s all around and eventually 225x50x15s on 7x15 Fuchs on the rear. Car was driven to and from every event. CD player, full leather interior, custom roll bar, RS style door panels. Did 1:48s at Laguna. Should have never sold it dry.gif
