I bought another '73 2.0 optioned car. It has a really solid tub and is complete. It does run, all I need to do to drive it is install a new master cylinder. Next week the tank gets pulled, MC goes in, five lug gets installed and the madness starts all over again. I really don't need two cars, but sadly, I'm an addict.

The first step towards a cure, is admitting you have a problem.....

But then again what a great problem to have.

Note: there are a LOT of worse things to be addicted to than 914s.

Neither one is drivable.

My black car is waiting for the /6 build and this white car has no brakes, but still I'll be there tomorrow for the concours…..


I'm a 914 wanna-be.

It's only a problem if you admit it, if not, it's a hobby!

The four lug Fuchs are spoken for. This car came out of dry Arizona.

We started with the tank, and it's so fun to find out you only have to empty eleven gallons of old, varnished, smelly gas……The tank is clean inside, so we will proceed.

I haven't met too many 914 owners who have just one...

My wife says one of them will always have the wheels off...
