Well I finally got my first 914. It's a 1973 black on black 1.7l. Just got it unloaded and safely in the shop. I'll give it a go this weekend and see if I can get it running. Even if I do it'll be going under the knife for an engine rebuild.

Mostly a stock rebuild. Not sure which way to go with the engine yet. Maybe turn the 1700 into an 1800 or big bore.

Welcome to the World of everything 914.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Quick note for the future....Don’t haul a 914 backwards, the rear window has a tendency to get pushed in to your interior... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Hey, if you order a windshield, let me know. I looked into a Sekurit from Pro Source but the shipping was the killer. Maybe if we split the shipping, it will make it affordable. Maybe @DrTim needs a windshield too... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

I think the quote I got from a local shop was ~$300 for Chinese XYG glass shipped. That wasn't too bad, but nice to have options. I'm also reluctant to spend too much on a windshield for a car driven around here. You know what I'm talking about. If your windshield ain't cracked, you aren't from Montana!

Sure man. It'll be a bit before I'm at the point of a new windshield. Not sure how soon you want to get one ordered. I'm going to go to a couple of the local shops to see about costs. What part of Montana are you in ?

It will be summer at the earliest before I'm ready to install glass. I'm over in Bozemania .
