And it’s a wrap. Greg has been an amazing customer and a tremendous caretaker for this beautiful and tastefully appointed 1973 2.0 914.

What started as some metal repair and a repaint quickly became a dream come true for Greg and quite frankly everyone that touched her here at PMB Coachwerks.

I’ll try to be brief. Every nut and bolt turned, plated or replaced. All metalwork flawlessly perfected. Stunning factory light ivory paint adorns her flanks. New stock 2.0 euro spec engine with VEMS electronic fuel injection delivering 112hp at sea level mated up to a factory LSD 914 transmission with a CFR linkage kit. Stunning factory Fuchs resto. New Bilstein shocks and inserts and of course, the crowning jewels... new PMB calipers grinding her happy go lucky self to a hault.

Look close and you’ll see a few of Greg’s custom touches. If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to drive a brand new 914 off the assembly line, you’ll have to beg Greg for a ride or... we can build one for you.

Car looked amazing in person, sounded amazing too. The more I see you pump out Ivory cars the more I want to take my 73 back to Ivory, with the blacked out chrome its just a killer combo.

Nicely done! I like the subtle mods since they make the car personal.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Is that blacked out trim paint? Powder coat? Anodized?
Thanks in advance.

A truly stunning 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Congratulations to Greg and the entire crew at PMB. PMB has demonstrated time after time they have the chops to produce beautifully restored or modified 914 masterpieces. Greg will enjoy driving that baby all over and reminding people what a great car the 914 is. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Very partial to light ivory and always thought it looked great with chrome trim, bumpers and black sail vinyl, but this blacked out combo is really stunning! Add the other black/white touches and this thing is really pulled together tight

Congrats and great job Eric!

Really nice car!

Btw. I think there are three pieces of black trim that cover the sharp edges... I bought a set from a local member.
