Dan.
Congratulations! I knew Craig would get you in a nice 914. I would keep that one stock also. Lots of rusty ones to cut up to modify. Damn, I like that interior. Yea, that battery location is ??. Lead acid battery at the far end of a car is not going to help handling and besides it just looks wrong. Tom |

Where's my bat? Down, down! Back, back! What's up Troy? Gotta catch up with you guys. This last year has been more than busy for Michelle and I. I haven't kept in touch like I should have. But I'm finally done with school and looks like the house thing is settling down. Life is calming back down a little finally. Where's that Teener Tuesday thread.........

My first was a white and tan '76 2.0 with steel wheels and chrome rings. I put 205s on it and it handled great!

QUOTE (Unless Camp914 took care of it for ya) Dan great car for the money , Funny thing is that it was in Portland Craigslist Yup! Craig basically did a PPI for me, snagged the 914 and goodies. Then picked up Michelle and I from the train station. I can't thank him enough for all the help. I owe Craig a big favor for sure. This 914 is really nice and I want to keep it that way. I also want to drive the tires off of it, but keep it really nice and clean. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
