Decided to pull the 914 out of the garage for the first time in 11 years and get her back on the road. Started doing some research and came across this site. After lurking for a while, I finally decided to make myself known and say hello.

So hello to all and more specifically hello to any Aussie 914 owners here.

There seem to be many very helpful people here and I look forward to being an active member.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Also dont forget to check out the classified ads here on the site. Great source for parts since 914s were never imported into Australia AFAIK

According to the articles which I've read in the book below (great collection of 69- on 914 articles BTW), they did import a few 914s downunder back in the day, including a few "Righty" conversions!

Oooops! - I guess my "Cheers" before should've been a few ongoing big ole Fosters - not a wimpy USA mug! So again - Cheers Mate! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Don't believe everything you read... Porsche brought out exactly TWO cars early on, one stayed, and the other was sent back to Germany. ALL the others are private imports.
