Got the new project last night. Here are pictures of what it looks like now. These will be the only posts I make on this car until I actually make some serious progress on it. Rather than to post multiple posts with pictures here, I am going to post just one and then a link to the rest of them. Those who know 914's will be able to tell a lot about it from the pictures.

White 74 The link goes to pictures I did not resize, they are large and not for the bandwidth impaired. I will ad more as I go.

Well, Aaron and I figured out it was originally a 1.8 liter car. That explains the lack of front or rear sway bars and the jury rigged center console wiring. It is however, a 2 liter GA engine and it does run pretty good. It has a few hoses not connected and idles a little high, I am going to get it all dialed in and running perfect and start doing to modifications to make it a nice little AX/street driver. I took it for a drive today and the brakes feel like they are lacking a little bit some there will be some brake upgrades in the near future. It will get uglier before it gets better. In the mean time, I have a car I can drive while I work on it. If you looked at the pictures, you probably noticed it has the smaller 1.8 H/E's on it, I will be changing that first thing. I only need to find a 2 liter muffler bracket and some gaskets.
