The 916 was to be the fastest production car that Porsche had produced to that time. The body is notably modified. So I am curious (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) what the fastest 914-s look like. What have you done to your car?

#1, In my first 914, a '71, my friend Jim and I crossed the Arizona to New Mexico border on Route 60, a wide two lane road. How far can we go in one hour?
We took off and got tired of driving flat out after 45 minutes. So we backed off and still did 90 miles in one hour.... #2 in my fourth 914 was a few weeks ago. Elio had finished re-building my '73 2.0 into a 2.2. He said I had driven it enough to 'drive' it. So I went north out of Bridgeport, cut left onto Route 25, a first class divided highway. Going north, the radar trap cut out was empty. Made a U-turn at the light and drove past the trap. No cop. Took off and hit 100 way before Davis Farm Road... Oh, was it light in the front end,,, Just like 48 years ago... I'm not doing it again. I promised my grand daughter she would inherit this one... But not now!! |
