I bought me a 914 i found on Craigslist in Boulder, Co. It was delivered yesterday. It needs a new paint job and some little things here and there. But its a nice car none the less. 1970 dated 11/69 paint code L041. rare (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) The motor was rebuild to a 2056 buy a Porsche shop in Denver, has 8k miles on it now. The driver front caliper was blown when it was delivered. Looked like it was a small leak that got progressively worse, then went out on my first drive.

The BMW 320i calipers are leaking pretty bad so I bought some early 914 calipers from the classifieds, the red ones I'm sure y'all have seen them. Hoping to have them here soon.
It has 195 65 15 that rub in the rear. The rims are 5 1/2. Is it because it's a early 70? I don't remember rubbing in my other 914's which were all later models. I have a good set of 165's i might through on. My plan is to autocross it but i want to get the structural repairs done first. Then i'll hunt for a nice set of tires. |
