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? |

After years and years of being up on blocks in my garage while I slowly worked on it, accumulated parts, revised it, ignored it, worked on it some more, I finally got it far enough along to take it to Chris Foley and Ed Morrow at Tangerine Racing. For awhile they had their hands full with clutch/flywheel, fuel line plumbing, throttle and shift linkage, and welding of a newly discovered engine case crack. Ed had to pull off some vacuum magic to restore a leaking seal after the case was welded. Very creative guy.
Anyhow, I’ve been driving it legally now for over a year and I have the 914 that I want. Thanks, Chris and Ed. [url=https://flic.kr/p/2c4PEuM](IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/farm5.staticflickr.com-1239-1544369049.1.jpg) |
