I detailed my project in a number of threads on this site (see below). Car is an original /6 now with a 2.5 L high strung short stroke, PMO carbs, nice interior and all the original /6 bits: rear calipers (with spacers for vented rotors à la GT) half shafts, dash and ignition, extra gauges etc . . .

The car runs very well and very strong. $ 25 000. I can assist with delivery, within reason. Car is registered in my name, no liens. Michel Richard Attached thumbnail(s) |

Congrats David, to me that was the deal of the year. Twice, I haven't been able to buy that car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
This is a lesson to buyers out there. Buy the most car you can and somebody else's sweat equity. Michel, don't be a stranger, good luck on the Europa. T.C. |

That is one helluva car! Congrats David and Michel!! Thanks for the kind words to you both bcheney and carr914 (carr914, your avatar thing is awesome - she is whoa...) I am looking forward to getting the car home. I am like a lot of folks that are on this site. I "lurked" for years, finally got back into the 914 business and now have more cars than I can keep. Stay tuned for one of the nicest 74 2.0's that have come around in a while. I will post pictures of the before and after and hope I can break even on it. I would like to do a couple of very subtle things to the 914-6 (all in good taste and along the spirit of the 914-6 GT) to make it my own. Michel did a tremendous job and you are correct when you noted to buy a car that someone else has already finished. Ask me how I know sometime. Again thanks and I will post pictures of both cars when I get everythng together. |
