If Chevy had made the 914's, would they still get the same attention they do? Is the 914 dependent upon the porsche cachet? What if it was a Honda product? Would people care?

The 914 reminds me more of the 550 with a targa.
I went looking for bmw calipers yesterday at the U-pull salvage yard (no luck) but found a '66 or '67 corvair looking pretty beat up. But there was the engine totally intact, carbs, ignition, fan the whole bit. "How to hot rod your VW" has a page on the corvair saying the rotation has to be reversed. That would be hanging behind the car. So, theoretically, in front of the tranny it would run OK in a stock setup. What do you think? Should I pull the seized 2.0L and drop in a six? I think Nader might have been wrong. The corvairs were safe under 15 MPH. |
