Anybody pay attention to what a restored '73 914 that gets a 3.2 motronic 6, fiberglass flares, 8 pt chromoly cage, Quaife, Moton suspension, RSR front spindles, Boxster calipers, 3pc Fuchs with BBS halfs, 911 dash and complete wiring, bla bla bla, etc etc, overkill retarded mods would go for in Germany? My goal is to finish my "Decade" project, ship it home, drive on the Nurnburgring North Loop (sub 11 min w/o fence meetings), then up into Austria to Kitz, then sell it, buy a couple of Ducati's and visit eveything agian on -2 wheels. Any ideas on $?

Thanks, D.

but my impression is that collection of mods will never pass a TüV inspection for road use in Germany.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) 99.9% chance the car will *NOT* be streetlegal in germany.

btw. you should make sure they'll let you drive it on the street over there before you ship it over ...
it used to be that americans (that were in the military service in germany) were excempt from certain TÜV rules, but i'm not sure that is still the fact.
but in any case, as soon as you sell the car, any excemptions you might be able to negotiate for you will be lost in space and the next owner will be left with a hefty bill ($$$) to make it streetlegal or use it as a track-only car.
in which case you just narrowed your potential market to almost nil ...

just my 2 cents worth of drivel ...
