So 44 years ago today I purchased my 1971 914-6. Still happy in fact proud I bought it. Given their race history even by 1971 it was easy to ignore the NARP snobs. To this day enjoy driving it as much if not more than my 1973 911S.

That's awesome. Congrats.
And you paid cash like a BOSS. $2846.50 in 1971= $16772.42 today. My car just turned 40 on the 16th. Yours was the fastest...mine was the slowest (1975 1.8 with CAT). |

Happy anniversary, Mark.
Turned out to be a real good investment, huh? I know there are others out here that are original owners - is there a thread for OOs? |

I love to hear OO & 2nd long time owner stories like this! I've owned just 5 cars myself since my first in Fall `69 (not counting folks cars, wives cars, kids cars, etc.), & still own #3, 4 & 5 with 4 & 5 as our DDs! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
