Had been casually looking for *something* for years and years.... old Saabs, Triumphs, Volvo 1800s, etc... Just to satisfy my general need for a fun car project on the side. Last week I picked up my 1970 914 1.7L for what I hope was a pretty reasonable price. It was for sale in the area, and it was apparently time to pull the trigger.
Anyways..... really glad I passed over some of those other cars... really happy with the decision, absolutely LOVING this car. It's driveable and in good shape. Some items to fix, as expected. Looking forward to fixing her up, keeping her a long long time, and getting some ideas/inspiration from the forums here. Hi Everyone! - Eriq Attached image(s) |

Looks like a nice car. Now go buy some jackstands and fix the rust you haven't found yet! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
