Hey Hey! New member here from Longmont, Colorado and I wanted to say hello! I just bought a 73 914 1.7 and I am super excited to get it! It has not arrived yet and I was going to wait to post so I could drop some photos but I could not wait, was getting anxious.
I grew up in a Porsche household, I think my dad has been a PCA member for like 60 years maybe and I grew up going to PCA events and hanging around Porsches. I did not really take interest in them for a few reasons but mostly economical. This last year I have become pretty nostalgic and was on the hunt for a 914 and finally pulled the trigger. My dad would be stoked! The car I am getting needs some work for sure but I think is pretty solid and good start. First thing I will be doing some wheels and tires, it has steelies on it. Any suggestions or favorites? I want to enjoy the car a little bit this summer while working on it. Thx. |

The white car on BAT was a Colorado car and sold by a member here
I’m just guessing this is not the same car because it would not need to be shipped Shedtherad, Nice to meet you! I’m also in longmont I would be happy to invite you out to my house for 914 talk and a garage beer! We have an active local group and do some drives as well as hold events It would be great to meet in person and lots of resources around here Brant |
