Hi All,
I'm a new guy on the block and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Mark and I live in NH. I own a 1971 914-6 (9141430354) which I purchased new 32 years ago this month (yeh I'm kind of an old f*rt)! You might say I'm a lifer. I have promised the car to my 20 year old daughter so she won't let me track it or autocross it (never did these things in the past but I'm getting the itch now!). At present I am selling my other P car (1973 911S) to finance the purchase of a drivers ed/street car(either early 911 or 914-6). I'd love to build a GT replica like the orange one being done at present but my finances are limited. I am envious of that gentleman and do respect his dedication and thoroughness:-) Thats for sure! You guys have a great board and I hope I can contribute some helpful info in the future. 71six Mark |

QUOTE(71six @ Jul 5 2003, 01:57 PM) Hey krk, The car has 82,000 miles on it. I forgot to mention it has the carrera tensioner upgrade also. Weber 40IDA instead of IDT carbs also. Early 911S distributor (steeper advance curve?). The engine's never been opened up either. Speaking of the gas burners I have 5 still in box'es I got from Stoddard 20 some years ago. Never had tire's mounted on then (I'm kind of a pack rat, thats why I have a barn:-)). The car was repainted in the 80's but silver is the original color. Photo's tomorrow with any luck!!! Mark PS-Marc Scala has seen the car by the way:-) Ok. Let's see if I've got this right. 71 /6 in barn. Gasburners still in boxes. Yes? You have to leave now. Oh -- well -- post the pics first. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Kidding of course. Actually I'd love to see pics of the boxers that the burners came in! kim. |
