It's official... I'm a 914 owner. I sold my 993 to fund a renovation on a piece of real estate but I was feeling car-lonely and finally just decided to pick up a 914. I've wanted one for the better part of my entire life. I'm 42... My mother had a 75 or 76 Yellow 914 around 1985-86 and I've been a fan ever since.

I picked up a nice 73 2.0 from a friend who bought it off a Rennlister and probably a 914World member no doubt. It's not perfect but its clean, limited rust issues (some previous repair, some to come), runs well (needs a clutch), and will be a really fun never-ending project.

I'm sure you've seen the car around... the PO had it for sale in the lot at Hershey. No solid offers so he took it home and continued to enjoy it. But, hes building a 911 RSR clone car so I made him an offer and he took it to continue to fund the bigger project.

I have all sorts of ideas and plans but for now, I'll get used to driving it and probably do a clutch over the winter and worry about any big changed next winter after a season of enjoying it the way it is currently (for the most part).
