I'm looking for my first 914, will be a weekend driver. While I understand that any 35 year old car (or any car really) will require parts, work, and maintenance, I am NOT looking for a giant resto project, a racer, a candidate for a 6 conversion, etc....just looking to have some fun on sunny days with my beautiful wife.

I have wanted a 914 ever since i was in high school, and now i've got some cash to get one!

What do you guys think of this one? It's in vermont. I am quasi-local in boston, MA (3 hr drive) so I can go to check it out...
