Sweet ride, even better with some family history. Those rims and the polished trim really pop on black.

You guys sure know how to make a guy feel welcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) A year or so I purchased a bunch of seals, gaskets, and o rings to address the common leaks that have been bugging me. It just needs basic maintenance. I agree with many of you that even though it's not the most desirable 1.7L cal emission 914, it is indeed all there and mostly original which many people prefer. I will take your advice and my Granddads to keep it as close to original as possible.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Great looking car. Keep the FI and drive it. It does become a love hate relationship.

I'd keep it original. Preservation is value-rich in all classic cars. Followed by restoration and so on... |

First thing I would do is get rid of the Rivieras. Nice car, black looks good on a 914. And, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Don't listen to him... the Rivs look great!! Congrats on the car! [Could use some Mustang mirrors, though.] |

Welcome.
Beautiful original cars are not very common. IMHO. keep it original or do Porsche 6 swap. It is too nice to cut up. If you want to build a Subie or Chevy conversion, find another car that needs more work to begin with and go crazy. |
