I have exchanged emails with the original owner of my 914 a couple of times a year since I bought it in 2014. He had owned it for 41 years. He sold it to someone who sold it to me just 2-3 months later so Jim and I represent about 48 years of ownership.
Jim is a great guy who took amazing care of the car. He, his partner and son drove five hours from Minneapolis to our place in Ephraim WI. Had a great time chatting and going to dinner with them.  |

I bought mine from a friend. He bough it out of a field by the local Air force base. I still give him crap about being the DAPO.
The six came from Rusty, so I know the history as far as he knows it. Betty is the second owner of hers. She didn't meet the original owner. A flipper bought it, put a clutch in it, and sold it to her. He never titled it in his name so he doesn't count. Clay |
