Had a great day today !
I talked to the original owner of a car I've owned for more than ten years. The car is a 1970 914 6 It was also owned by a member here who was active for a long time. The original guy bought it at Rusnak Porsche in Pasadena and was kept it for several years. It still has its original engine and transmission and I have all the parts. He was a member of POC The car was serviced at 'Scientific Automotive' ......anyone familiar? The original owner is now 96 years old and was very happy to hear about the car. He remembered very specific details. This is a first for me and despite the cars condition and past damage I'm thrilled. Rory Attached image(s) |

My wife took the car last summer to a nearby town and was approached by the original owner, another woman who immediately recognized it as eventhough it now has 5 lug Fuchs, a black painted rear Porsche panel and GT engine grill. She took pics and reminisced about what a fun car it was.
I am friends with both the second and third owners, both males and know it's mechanical and body work history. I regularly visit the second owner who still regrets selling it. Since putting a 6 in it along with just about every inch of the car modified unfortunately he cannot afford to buy it back. |
