You have a 72, rebuilt engine and trans , new shocks-struts, good rubber, rebuilt brakes, stainless fuel lines, converted fuel pump, solid body. basicly a stocker in good shape. You're gonna take a trip from Phoenix to Birmingham. And back. Days of slightly illegal speed. What would you bring? What would you do to prepare besides oil change , valve adjustment, the obvious stuff?? In search of the dream. After all , a teener is nothing if not a touring car, is it not?

BMW Motorcycle Owners Association used to publish a book for members that listed other owners and available capabilities in case you needed someone to call for help. Something like that would be awesome in the 914 world. I would gladly lend any support to a fellow teener in need.
I had the motor and transmission out of my car for a total re-seal last year. Got the driveline reinstalled on a Sunday, got the car running Wednesday evening, jumped in it the next day and drove to Okteenerfest 7 hours away. Car ran flawlessly to, during, and from the event all the while getting 30mpg. My thoughts on carrying lots of tools, I'm usually close to a u-haul dealer anywhere I go.. I still carry the basics, i.e. handtools, a good jack, flashlights, etc. Part of owning these cars is the actual road trip adventures. Chris |
