Hi everyone, I've been a member since last spring and lurked quite a bit. Since I posted an ad in the classifieds I figured I should say hi to everyone.

My name is Lee, I live in ABQ New Mexico. I have a 74 914 Street/Track car I use for PCA DE's and Auto x's. it's a 2 liter car with carbs and mild supension work.

I actually have a performance shop here in ABQ with a chassis dyno, and my main focus is porsche performance, primarily early aircooled cars up to the 964.

Cheers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Ha, here's my second post so i guess i'm good for another year at least....

I've never met Liz and Nico but I have enjoyed their products a few times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) We have a pretty decent 914 scene out here, mostly 4 cylinders but there are a few nice six converions running around. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I remember going to Albuquerque for a zone meeting. We then toured a shop down there where the guy did radical paint jobs on chopped 911's for racing.

Also, I believe Russ (?) was the local Pres. and he was quite the 914 racer.

Nice car.

What's the story with the wheels on the black 914? They look great. Are those 8" fuchs? What tire size? I presume the rear fenders are pulled?
