QUOTE(JeffBowlsby @ Nov 30 2020, 04:40 PM)  1975 with a bumper backdate? Or does your VIN start with 474? It is a 1975 with bumper back date |

QUOTE(Betty @ Nov 30 2020, 06:55 PM) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Hurst / Colleyville border here. There's a lot of 914's in the area, a ton of parts (mostly up in our attic, just ask scottthephotog (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ), and a wealth of knowledge locally. This coming Saturday (12/05/2020) there is an all Porsche Mavs & Mochas (Cars & Coffee) starting at 8:30 a.m. at Nordstrom, NorthPark Center. Just google "maverick pca" and you'll find the local Porsche Club's website with the details. Clay and I will have his monster 6 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) and our original 6 there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) . I'm betting some other 914's will show up. Even if you don't have a P car to drive, it'd be great to meet you, look at cars and talk 914's?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) Thanks-I will try and make it to North Park for the Maverick meet. |

QUOTE(76-914 @ Nov 30 2020, 07:40 PM) Looks like a clean car to start with. Is that a spare transmission? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Thanks! Yes it is a spare transmission. Not sure condition of it. |

QUOTE(Literati914 @ Nov 30 2020, 11:51 PM) @desullivan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) I'm down in Oak Cliff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) so I'm sure we'll link up at some point for a drive, don't have a running 914 YET but I'm willing to come out and help if you need any help on a project. Tell us about the car and your plans with it... is that a GT front bumper? Looks like an oil cooler opening. . Thanks for the welcome! My plan is to finish the rebuild of the 2.0 engine the PO started and get it up and running. Leaning towards more of a stock/original type build with minor upgrades (A/C, new quiet muffler- probably Ben McFarland SS). Bumper is fiberglass according to the PO- not sure if that means it is a GT. No oil cooler opening that I can tell |
