Really cool car! Love the documentation you have on it. That was a steal!
By the way the 1-2-3-4 buttons on that "stereo" seem to indicate it is an 8-track player. Now that is a period piece! 4742921370 is the last '74 made, that one is late in the run for sure. |

Congrats on the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
The car looks great and I'm certain you will find many things that will need 'tweeking' and/or fixing. Welcome to the wonderful world of 914ism.. |

Not too shabby... you were only a 914 groupie for a couple months before getting your own. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) Congrats on your new acquisition! Happy trails to you and wifey!!

That's my ride. Group: Members Posts: 2,151 Joined: 17-January 03 From: Redondo Beach, CA Member No.: 166 Region Association: None |
So I admit it, I'm the photographer...
Anyway, Andrew is the third victim of mine, in my quest to spread the 914 disease. Jeff (jkeyzer) and Royce (bondo) are the other two. I'm working on a neighbor down the street. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) While I didn't drive this car I got a ride in it and having never been in a 2.0 before, I could really tell the difference in acceleration. Another thing I noticed about this car is that the instant it fires up it idles perfectly. I just need to convince him that he needs to sell me the engine and do this V6 conversion as soon as possible!! -Tony |

That is a really nice looking car. I hope the hell hole doesn't turn out to be a big deal.

Nice car. Originals with all the papers are getting harder to find. I know you'll have a great time for years to come. Congrats!!!

So...the dealer charged Gramps for mag wheels and they gave him Rivieras?
I hope they didn't pull off Fuchs alloys and then "sell" him the Rivs.....heard a lot of dealers pull that....they even stole the spares and sold them in the parts department.... I assume that's a 2.0? Does it have sway bars and center console? |
