Thanks again to 914world for helping us find the original engine, Drolla for agreeing to trade it for a 2.7L, and John Forbes (Black Forest a Racing) for rebuilding the 2.7L. We are still collecting parts for the restoration. Here is what we are looking for now: 1. NOS passenger-side inner longitudinal. 2. NOS front fenders. 3. Just about all of the restoration design metal parts available. 4. 914-6 Relay Board 5. 914-6 throttle linkage - both on top of the engine and the bell crank that mounts to the transmission. 6. An original early dash top pad in excellent condition. 7. 914-6 tool kit. __________ 4/2/15 I feel like I should give out cigars. I had a chance to buy a six in the late 80s. It didn't work out for personal reasons. 27 years later I bought one. I didn't know that "bucket list six" meant a bucket of parts, and a list of problems. I am stoked. Bringing her home now. Pictures to follow. Attached image(s)
