I'm looking for recommendations for the best compact fire extinguisher for a 914 as well as possible mounting locations.

They run underneath your tins, on the ground and other places that you can’t get to with that stick. # My biggest concern is you have to hold it to close to the flames My friend as you know your 914-6 gave me the inspiration to build my Six. Please don’t put your trust in this product, buy a Purple K extinguisher and know that it will put out anything you throw at it. |

I was not kidding...but now I am. Jeff Zwart recommended this product on his Instagram feed...must have been a paid endorsement. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I know my Irish Green 914-4 is an awesome car ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) ), but you might be thinking of another one of the many Michaels who own 914s and likely Michael Wills if an AZ-based 914-6 inspired you to build a six. Looking forward to seeing your car on Rt 66. Cheers |
