I just joined the forum. I fell for the 914 while stationed a Fort Ord during the early 70's. I am just finishing restoration on a 35 Ford. My next is going to be a 914. I want this to be my driver. I know absolutely nothing to look for when I go to buy one this summer. Can some of you folks help out on what to look for and what to stay away from? I promised the wife that this one won't take five years. So I would like one that does run so she can take it for a ride a few times (To get her hooked) before I tear it down. From what I am hearing, is I need to go to SO CAL to get one that is close to rust free. This maybe a misconseption or everything I read or hear maybe one. So please help me all you can. Thanks. Gunn

I appreciate all the great info. I think I will call on somebody when I go looking to make sure my eyes do not get me into trouble. I also think I will go to the WCR 2011 in Medford. And my fear with the wife is, she will commander the 914 and I never get to drive it. In the area we live in the roads are great for motorcycles and sportcars. I drive 65 miles one way to work each day, and the roads the whole way are nice S all the way. I looks forward to more information and and education. Gunn
