I've been looking around for a Suby donor car for a few weeks now, was going to do a Suby conversion on my Yellow 75. Then happen to find this is in the cassifieds here...... and the next thing you know another 914 was on my trailer headed home.

At home.

No room in the garage, so until the shop is done... its new home...all tucked in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Here's the motor thats in it now, a rotary, neither Fred or myself wanted to pull it in the driveway, so I'm going to pull it here, then get it back to Fred. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Here is what the car looked like a few years ago, I'd like to bring it back to close to the same look, but with a Subaru engine and tranny. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

It was nice meeting you Fred,(freddiemac on the site) and your family.
We had fun loading the car on the tiny streets of Albany, but we got it done.
And Fred needs to post pictures of his 911, Rotary turbo motor, pushing over 700 Hp to the RW, Very nice, professional setup. Very impressive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

So now the plan is, put a stock motor in the Yellow car, I think I have a couple, and sell it.

Then restore the black 74, with the Suby engine and tranny, park it in the garage next to the white 74... and then decide which one to drive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Too much fun!

You have the sickness... You have it bad! I've seen where you live. You can store at least a 100 more 914's there... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You're right, I'm all Fuched up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) ya not only do I have lots of room and a trailer, but awhile back in a conversation my wife stated " I don't care how many cars you buy" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) So I'm thinking one of each year, maybe each color....too many cars and way too much fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)
