Thanks to Markb for hooking me up with his old 914.
I love finally having a 914 that I can drive around. All these years I've only ever had a racecar. I've always wanted a 914 since I was about 15, I've had the racecar for 10 years now, but I've never had anything streetable until now.
With an injected 1.7 it certainly nowhere near as fast as I'm used to but I can't believe how much fun it is to roll around in an old NARP.
I'm looking forward to painting it. I'll try to put it off for awhile and Mark says he doesn't think I can go 3 months without jumping into it. I must admit that I was at my shop today thinking, well it wouldn't take me too long to bang out that dent in the fender and get it in primer. It's a slippery slope.
