Weclome to my blog my name is Chris and i have recently picked up a 1972 914-4 i have been a fan of 914's for years but never got one i have been into Volkswagens for years and years backing to the mid 80's. so im not unfamiliar with the 914's motor but in now learning the rest of the 914 so hopefully i can keep this blog up with my 914 and what ive done to it and what plans are etc.

About the 914. i picked it up yesterday March 10 2007 and its a 1972 which has the original 1.7 engine it has been parked for 3 years and has not been licensed for 10 years last licensed in 1997. it has ben repainted at least 3 times from what i can tell and the orginal color i think is L13. the car is currently red and has a set of gold aftermarket Empi 8 spoke wheels on it. my plans are to find a set of 2 liter Fuchs or Mahles, Pedrinis with ultimately having 5 lug fuchs. The interior is pretty complete and the drivers side outside door handle is broken.

More info to come
