Hi everybody,
time to introduce myself after reading through the forum for over a year.
My name is Marty,born in Germany, living in Australia since 2002.
Been on the hunt for a 914 since mid 2013 and after a few set backs and heart breaks I finally managed to purchase bill1963's beautiful 6-conversion sans engine.

The car arrived after almost 6 months last tuesday and the smile carved in my face since then is starting to hurt.( and yes... I'm aware that smile will probably turn upside down once i start working on the car )
The process of importing the car has been extremely painful,I guess my choice of importer was not the best and I had a hard time extracting any information about anything from the guy who did the job but in the end the car arrived.

A few weeks ago i bought a 3.0l out of a 1978 911SC (Japan Import)
and my friend is currently taking it apart.

Looking very much forward putting the car together,there have been a few changes recently for registering modified cars here in Australia and i hope it won't be too much of a hassle to get it on the road.

I'm lucky to have fellow 914world member edwin and my friend Christian helping me with the task,don't think it would be possible without their help so thanks in advance!

Also a big thank you to bill1963 who was very patient and understanding!

I absolutely love reading through all the threads here and am amazed about the knowledge and the enthusiasm you guys have for those cars.
Good to be here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
