I just got off the phone with a guy here in Kansas who said he had a 1971 914 GT.
He claims that it was originally a 914/6, but that the engine was damaged, and the previous owner put in a 1.7/4 just to keep the car running. They couldn't find a 2.0/6 to put in the car. Anything is possible, given enough money. Does this make sense? -Rusty |

I gotta see what it looks like first, or even if it's for sale. I called my local FLAPS checking on windshield wiper blades, and the clerk told me that he had one of those "little Porsches", too.
He's having the interior redone at one of the better places in town, so it'll be easy to see what the chassis looks like. -Rusty |
