Just a hint but I went to college in the seventies and live in Topanga, Calif. Out adjusting my headlights last night and saw a friend's truck at the local mountain bar. Stopped in for just a minute and on the way home it hit me! 914's are really little baby 917's!! Lights came out great and boy do these cars handle!! Anyone else feelin' it? gg
