Hey 914 massive,
I owned a '74 914 2.0 10+ years ago (it is in the VIN database, so someone has it!) - after spending a few years in 993 and Boxster land, I've decided to return to something old. All the memories of rust and horror have faded to nostalgia! I'm tempted by trying to find a nice original 6.. but honestly I'd like to just drive it and not worry about keeping it in 5 star shape, so I could be tempted by a really nice 73-74 2.0 or -6 conversion. There seems to be a nice -6 conversion in LA (fresh 2.7L from otto's, heat exchangers, 911 gauges/suspension, etc.) - but since I'm in northern california, I'd like a pro to take a look at it - particularly one that knows about rust. Can anyone recommend a shop near Playa del Ray to take a look? Or if anyone knows the car/owner - that'd be even better. It's a horizon blue 1973 conversion, with brown interior. Thanks guys. If there is a more local forum that this is appropriate for, PM me. Dennis |
