Thought I'd take a moment to introduce @TINKERGINEERING
She reached out to us and with the help of her dad they are doing an electric 914. There's a whole story they are documenting, but thought I'd encourage them to post up a little of what they are doing. |

Thank you all, especially Mark, for all your support! We are still learning how the forum works. I will have so many questions for you all. ( Should I start a new thread to introduce myself, or should it live here?)
Hello 914 World! We are new here. It is clear that this is the best space for information on 914 projects. I was so excited to learn that this forum exists. I am Frances. I run a YouTube channel called TINKERGINEERING Tinkergineering is all about my journey in tinkering. Joy is what this gives me. Learning to share this joy has become my purpose. For my next project, I want to solve just a minor issue for myself. On September 16th. 2024, I will turn 16. This Winter I bought my first car, a 1976 Porsche 914 with the money I earned from picking the grapefruit tree at my house.This is my favorite car of all time and I will be converting it to electric! My main goal is to show other eleven-year-old girls how to take action in what they believe in. From bumpers to batteries I got my work cut out for me. Who knows, maybe there is another kid out there who could gain inspiration for their dreams from this project. That is my purpose, to pay it forward. I’m Frances. I'm 11 years old. Together my dad and I write and read these posts. You can track my Tinkergineering progress on Youtube and Instagram. The first episode of this journey is here: https://youtu.be/lfGKeQZNsKQ 2nd Episode: Project Tour: https://youtu.be/iXfb1vN6BGo INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/tinkergineering/ |
