It really great! I have always thought the monza exhaust looked good on 914's.

Get comfortable with it, then bring that bad boy out to the MUSR in October. Nothing like a road trip with your new obsession. Just be sure you've renewed your AAA membership. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Another very nice OHIO 914. The 4th a bunch op us got togeather in Portage In. To bad you wern't there ! Do you have the room to work on it at Home ? Rust in rear trunk needs attention 1 st., check battery tray, get it all before it gets to bad,Have you checked cockpit floors under carpet.After you get all the rust issues taken care of. Drop the engine, AND DETAIL IT COMPLEATLY, along with the engine compartment. Then you will have a real show stoper! Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) |

Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) Dave, thanks for the advice (I'm gonna need a lot). Your right about the trunk rust, and I found a few spots under some of the rubber around the headlights too. The floors look really good. I agree that I'm going to have to drop the engine and clean up the engine and bay. I'm also guessing that this car may have its original fuel lines, which makes me nervous (think I'll buy a fire extinguisher this week). I noticed that my temp gauge in the console doesn't work, or the clock, but the voltmeter does. So that will take some investigation. The car photographes well, but up close the original paint is not in great shape, at least on the exposed surfaces, the trunk paint is actually pretty nice. It will need some attention in the future too. Turk |

very clean
so easy to go wild and custom w 914s so much more difficult to keep them stock (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) if you've got original paint and patina, that's worth keeping if it is already a re-spray w custom parts, like mine, go crazy and have fun!
