HI - I just joined. I bought a new 914 in 1973. Drove it 100,000 problem free miles and sold it.
i'm giving a lot of thought to buying another. i've looked around - and see the normal types of problems with a 50-ish year old car. If I move forward - I'll be looking for a car that has minimal rust. I can do a lot - but I'm not a body fabrication guy. I'm at a crossroads. My car was a long time ago - and I'd like to clarify to myself what reality is. Cars have come a long ways. I certainly realize a 914 is a very basic car compared to the computers with a car wrapped around them of today. I don't see or know of any 914s around me. I'm in Central CA - 1 hour below Sacramento. I'm looking for suggestions where I might be able to go to see 1. and a quick ride. to sort out if I want to pursue buying one. thanks |
