I start reading something and realize it's 6 years old. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Sir Andy is "learning how to build" a 914 again. LOL

Seriously, being able to research the historic threads provides us a great asset without having to ask via a new thread. We are not building thread history to satisfy our "egos" but we are doing important research in support and for our cars.

I have recently been doing research on the 914-sizer regarding wiring and related connections. Why is this important? My car was stolen last year while moving to Grants Pass, OR and I am having to go through the trials and tribulations of rebuilding the wiring harness. The harness was cut up and if you have to rebuild a wiring harness wire by wire in your head in order to get the cut portions correctly installed you will totally understand why we have and need access to these threads.

Old threads are also very informational.

Oh, HELL!! Broad your mind and think of others and their needs and not being a little inconvenienced by running into historic threads. Always check the dates before opening them.

I have a few years left of being involved with the 914 and want to have access to threads without hassle.

These are my "72 year old thoughts".
