Supposedly a dealer show car that has been raced in the US since 1969? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
QUOTE 1969 Porsche 914/14 SCCA news, pictures, and information One of the very first 914's into the U.S. Was Jo Hoppen's demo car for dealers. Has been a race car since that first year.

I met Les at Steve's Aircooled Racing shop in Pa. some years ago and see both Steve and Les quite frequently at track events and Hershey. When I first started this journey down 914/4 to 914/6 conversion, Les told me his engines were +$10k. The first time I saw him run at Summit Point, I then understood what $$$ gets you in a /4 .... I was impressed. Chris, it was some time after watching your videos I realized you were running a /4, I had thought it was a six. ....... so why am I doing this conversion .... hmmmmm?
