So I stop in and and say....yo...what up with the VW?
Guy looked at me and said it's a PORCH.....one syllable.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) Then he sees my 911 ass dragger and he gets the joke.... I check it out while quizzing him....he's the owner and the wrench at the station. Solid trunks, not cut for a/c, intact battery tray, steel wheels with rusty silver paint, some rust patches on top of the front trunk seam of the fender....pretty solid car. Light blue, build date of 3/73 good bumpers.... Guys says he just got it running, decent interior, frozen front driver side caliper.....he seems open for a sale, he bought it for his kid....kid wants a Mercedes......I hit him with "I bought one last year like this for $800".....he says that's what he's into it for......been sitting since 96 and has a non op with DMV. Hmmmm, looks like I may have another '14 soon...... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Pics tomorrow.....I didn't have my camera on me. |

Isn't there a rule about admins not owning a 914? You better buy this thing fast or risk losing admin status. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Nah...IF I did it.....it would stay stock and I would get it nice and sell it.
I'm trying to locate the Rocket owner and get THAT back. I PM'd Dave Bell.....I think he has the guy's #...... Went over to the Renegade site and looked for the video of the Rocket and Steve Malm's ZX powered '14 on PCH in the rain (couldn't find it)....it's the one where the Renegade guy made the dumbfuck pass in traffic near the cop shop....the driver/photog is the owner I'm looking for. |

One of the first 3.0 conversions that used off the shelf parts....done around 1994.
Started out as a 70 piece of crap and ended up with a 250HP, flat six and a LSD trans, flares and all the goodies.... Attached image(s)

Cool, just keep at it. Pumping the big hills feels great when you can do it without weazing.
I know this is a total Hijack but here's a picture o me at a ride a thon school did. Eric Attached image(s)

Sounds like a good deal for the car Mike, jump on it if you get the chance. Even sporting around in a 1.7 914 is fun driving. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)
