This is the 5th time I've owned a 914 in my life thus far. First with a 914xxx VIN. For me, this is the car I've always wanted. It suits my eye just right!
And because of that - I'm going to make an effort to properly document it's history and the modest tinkering I attempt on the car. Please feel free to comment, give advice, encourage, or post pics that add to the thread (just remember this isn't the sandbox and my kids might see this someday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) ) EDIT - Goals and Objectives; GT 6 clone that is fun driving, protect and preserve, address areas that need restoration or improvement, finally only tasteful accepted modifications that won't diminish the overall value. Task list *Engine rebuild (start off with the easy one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) ) *New wheels and tires *New exhaust *Tribute decals *Rotate seats *Source and Instal passenger mirror *Front hood pins *Rear hood latches *Cibie hood fog lights *Rear valance *Address paint in engine bay *Upgrade headlights to LED *Add LED to instrument cluster *Replace carpeting *Change radio *Swap bumpers for tribute fiberglass two tone paint *Rekey all locks the same * End Edit A few facts about me first:
