Well, I found my new project car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Its a 74 FP racecar.

It will need some work, but man I just couldn't pass up the deal. I can't tell you just yet where I found it because, while I trust you guys, I am trying to work a deal on a few other things. I should know more before Thanksgiving.

So ladies and Gentlemen, It is my pleasure to introduce my new 914 "Moby" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Interesting, looks like a nice score. What is the history of the car?


Belonged to a guy in Wisconsin. He passed away a few years ago and they are now clearing up his estate. It has been ran in mainly vintage and a few scca races. There at least 15 race cars there, all mostly 924/944 and a few 914.

what the heck is the deal with the induction system? fi runners, cross bar, and some mystery items we're unable to see. side draft webers or dels?


I found it interesting also. The carbs are webers. I will post more pictures tomorrow of the engine. Story is engine was pulled at the end of the 2003 season because of low compression. They couldn't tell me which cylinder, but that is ok it needs to be gone through anyway after setting that long. It still turns over by hand.
