OK, what's what here. In another thread Tom posted a factory data sheet re: '73 914. It list the Curb Weight as 2145 and the As Tested weight as 2460. Just curious because my water cooled 6 conversion came in as 2340 with a full tank, spare tire and tools in the trunk. I should add this was before I added the AC but the compressor was on the engine so I'm probably about 25 lb's heavier now. TIA, Kent (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

So, when do you install the power windows, powered and heated seats, keyless entry door locks, powered side mirrors and Alpine stereo amp.? Or you could just buy a 928. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

I have a functioning heater & A/C. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Powered seats; no. I never move them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Unlike some old Fart I know, I'm still able to get in & out of mine without having to move the seat. I already have heated seats; eat your Heart out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) At this age if I do keyless entry I'd forget the code. Mirrors? They don't get moved either so don't need 'em. And when you have an injected 6 who wants to listen to the stereo? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) That's to drown out those carbed 4 bangers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) |
