For me mid-70's, I'm walking home from high school, this /6 with GT flair and the car was a rat rod in grey primer, it was on my home town main drag and the guy was honking on it. I actually didn't know it was a 914 till I saw a 914 with GT flairs up close a few years later.
It was pure sex, I was 13-14yrs/old, I probably went home and spanked one off to a car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |

First memory I have of them was going to a little shop called Kravig Marine in La Sierra (Riverside) CA. Donny Kravig went to the same High School as I did and my cousin hung around him. I was starting to get into VWs as my Uncle raced off road.
Donny told me to stop by the shop and there was a Grouppe 5 sitting back there and Mr Kravig pointed out a few things they were doing. The next memory I have was a red V8 914 showing up in one of the VW mags I got in the mail and that was it, I had to have one. Bought one to put in the V8, but the stars were not properly aligned and the project did not make it. Went through a bunch of them after that and I drive a 74 now. I am going to remedy the V8 situation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
