Hey all,
Today, June 10, 2014, I bought my first 914. It is a 1974 1.8, silver. My first posts on 914 world were in a thread dedicated to my hunt for a 914. It can be found at the following link: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;#entry2048714 Many, many people here provided a massive amount of fantastic information. I have studied, read, and (hopefully) learned the very basics of 914s. Now that I own one, I will have a million more detailed questions, and I hope to keep things documented in this thread. First, a few photos for you: Attached image(s)
