I have the 914 I want.
It is a 73 2.0 liter original car. It is not perfect. It has original paint. It runs great and drives great... and quite honestly, it is the perfect car... at least for me. As I thought about this, I wondered about how many people really truly have the 914 that they want. So many seem to want something other than what they have... maybe a six, maybe a wide fendered car, maybe something with perfect paint, something modified, maybe something better than what they have... so how many are really satisfied with the car they have? If you are satisfied with the car you have, post it here and tell us why? |

I recently sold one (the 'BB') that I was almost finished with ... needed a little more TLC cosmetically, but it ran great with a snotty 2.1L and hugged the corners real nice.
Black really isn't my favorite color, but I didn't think repainting it another color was a wise thing to do. I have one more that I'm still working on that is getting pretty much the full treatment and will be 'the one' we will keep. It's getting all new suspension components, turbo tie rods, PMB calipers, Zimmerman rotors, Bilstein shocks, a set of ATS Classics, a fresh F.I.'d 1.9L, 2.0L SS HEs, Bursch exhaust, a fresh THOMAS rebuilt transaxle, all new CVs, new paint, re-chromed bumpers with new tops, all new rubber seals and we're changing the interior from black to tan. It won't be the hot rod the 'BB' was, but it'll still move down the road just fine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
