Maybe you knew of a specific car or you were just wishing one would hit the market that checked the right boxes for you.
What's your story? I know I'm not the only one who loves a good car story! |

I wasnt looking for a 914 at all. My brother bought a vw beetle so we borrowed the rollback from his work to go pick it up about an hour away. On the way home i spotted the 914 in someones driveway in a sad state. We stoped and i knocked on the ladys door. I figured the vw on the truck would show I was serious. They had a bad flood in 06 and again in 2011 her husband passed away from all he stress of it. She had all kinda of offers for the car but I was the only one who didnt want to scrap it! I made an offer of $200. she said yes but wanted to discuss it with her son first. By the time we got home to drop off the vw we got the call to come get the 914. So we did. It looked alot better than it was. I thought i wasnt going to have to mess with the body but turned out to be just full of bondo with nothing underneth. But i went at it and fixed it up anyway. She wanted me to come by when i got it done but I still havnt made it up that way.
