trying to see how long I can go without a 914  Group: Members Posts: 487 Joined: 14-November 13 From: Westchester (Los Angeles) Member No.: 16,644 Region Association: Southern California  |

Ive seen this collection too often and I wonder if anyone recognizes the 914. I peaked into the tray and it looked like a 3.6 swap! Besides the Mustang and the BMW 2002, I believe he also owns an El Camino, a 633CSI and likely a VW Bus too. They are all along the same strip. I left a message a while ago, maybe its time to do it again if nobody here recognizes the car Thanks -Simon |

This is a couple of blocks from my shop. One of my workers asked him if he wanted to sell his car and he said no way. I have been looking at this car for years. It does move and the other cars in front of his house move as well so they do not get a ticket on street sweeping day.

Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) Ironically, just hours after I posted the pic here (its actually an old pic from months ago) I was on my way home and there he was, pulling his bicycle out of his VW Bus. I assumed he was the owner of the other cars and pulled over to talk to him. Nice older gent named Michael. I was chatting with him about the cars, mentioned Im considering getting a 914-6 and he replied, "do you have $100k?" to which I said, not an original, but a conversion, and he just repeated himself haha He was quite nice, we talked for a while. He has a few BMWs he wants to sell as they are post75, so CA-Smog headache cars. Im going to try and help him sell them, maybe he will then let me go for a ride/ drive his "$100k" 914-6. It has a 3.2 swapped in. @burton73 , wheres your shop? Have you heard of R&M Autoparts? The 76 2002 is over there |
