The current owner knows nothing about 914's let alone V8 conversions. He traded his Harley for this due to some injury and isn't real excited about the car. I talked to him once and all I got wa that the car is "real clean" but he thinks it needs a clutch.
Has anyone gone and taken a look at it or live near by and can take a look? 914-8 Thanks- |

Yep, I would be the guy to go see it.
I'm in LA right now but should be able to see it on Friday. If you make the arrangements and get me an address, I'll do a PPI. I am not a V8 expert, so keep that in mind. |

Looks like a nice car, the things to look for would be who the conversion parts are from and if they were installed correctly and clean. PM me and I can talk to you while you are there looking at it. Pictures would be good too.

It gets better. I could trailer it to the WCC. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)
I will take many many pictures for you guys to sort out. I know 914s and know where to look. It'll get careful scrutiny. Scott, get me your # and I will call during the inspection so you can have me look at the V8 specifics. |

I'm driving, unless the RS breaks. We'll have a 'burb and trailer. Right now, Scott Thacher has requested use of the trailer if it's available. Obviously, the RS has first rights on the trailer should it become necessary. If we were to bring this V8, it could ride unless the RS breaks, in which case it would have to go on the road. |

That car had been in the autotrader a few years ago - for a very, very, very long time. I pondered looking at it each time I was in NM for an office visit. Does look nice!
