Well, never started a "build" thread...so here goes.

Found the car outside LA and actually drove it home. Drove it through the canyons a few times...then the "sickness" set in.

Yes, I had to tear this car apart. Don't know why. I am an IT Project Manager by trade and a car junkie with the most limited tools ever.

List of cars come and gone:

1976 Lancia Beta HPE - high school Mulholland drive runner
1983 Fiat 2000 Spider Turbo - sweet car with a POS transmission
1967 Cadillac CDV - Lead Sled
1973 MGB GT - should have never sold it

And now, a 1970 Porsche 914

Here it is, in the seller's driveway...rippled, wavy, fogged paint.
2.0 with dual webers; ran well then.

Here it is 3 weeks later, told you I was sick!
