This is my first post on the World Garage Forums and I hope It goes OK. First I want to thank the dedicated 914 crowd who offer so much information on this site. I have been reluctant to post since I know so little and as I spend time working on the car I only get more questions and a understanding how little I know about a 914.
 I purchased a Bumblebee on this site about mid Nov and it has the good, bad and ugly. The good is that it had a original spoiler so I have removed it and replaced it with a replica which I found on this site. I do not know if the yellow paint on the car is accurate or not. I ordered the paint from NAPA twice and it is still a little more on the orange side, but it will have to do for now. The picture of the spoiler I hope gets posted. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) and don't be intimidated . I started with zero knowledge just like you, never heard of a 914 prior , and a non-running car. By the 2nd month I was able to drop the motor and put it back. The knowledge here is priceless. Make yourself a home.

Ask away, most of what we all speak is just bits and pieces of insight spread amongst out the dribble!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t2.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t1.gif) |

Quickest way to learn is to ask questions. Folks may mess with you a bit after they get to "know" you, but somebody always has a good suggestion if not a documented answer - and more often several. (And sometimes they don't contradict each other... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) But yeah checking the Classics forum/threads and using the search function first are always appreciated, I'm sure. If you haven't checked the Classics yet, click here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showforum=5 Best of luck and enjoy the ride! |
