It came with steelies that need to be repainted. I have lots of work to do!
Formerly BS Chairman's car. I fell in love with it and had to take it home. What I'm gonna do with three of these car, I don't know!


Thanks to Pat Garvey, dcheek, smg914, tod914, Bliznik, Brad Mayeur and others for sifting through dozens of cell phone pics!

And yes, I will enter it into the database!

Thanks, it wears its original paint, has lots of tiny blems but it's an "honest" car, neglected but unadulterated.

That's one clean looking car. What is the story with only 45k miles?

Still sorting through the owners. Gary BSChairman never put many miles on it for the last several years, just one of those cars that got stored for long periods of time I guess!

Really nice score Paul (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I have a soft spot for Ivory '71, 1.7Ls as well ... although we're punching out to 1.9L (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Do you have enough garage space for the new one? ... winter's coming, ya know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Very very nice...but not honest or unadulterated. Its had to endure a disingenuous life all these years. Someone bolted on the Fuchs later in life, not correct for a '71 914...I suspect you intend to put the steelies back on?
