Just curious - any idea who makes that rear spoiler? I may be adding one to my suby build eventually.


I'm not sure. I'll see if I can find out...

Glad you finally found one! Hope you can share the story...when, where, who, etc. The history of any 914 and the story of finding it are always fun to hear.

Also, is it still Delphi green anywhere?

Congrats! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

(edit) Saw your WTB thread, etc and see no Delphi but who cares? Great car! I'd love to find one just like it

Thank you! Yes, there is still some Delphi in the cabin and the trunks. The repaint was mostly exterior and engine bay

Congrats and keep us updated!

The rear lid spoiler is from Sheridan - I have one in storage. Not sure if 914rubber is making those now.

Thanks everyone! Man, I love this community. I've been working tirelessly on this thing, night and day. She runs great. I've been doing some local shakedown runs. This thing pulls like a rocket ship. It's easy to see why these cars have such a following. Bruce rebuilt the pedal cluster. (His work is phenomenal, by the way.) I also replaced all of the fuel lines with one of the kits from Tangerine Racing. Chris Foley is awesome. He's super helpful. I would be adding many more photos, but the board keeps giving me a message stating the files are too large. Does anyone know of a way around this?

I also replaced all of the shift bushings last Thursday. It shifts like a brand new 53-year-old car now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Bushings and proper adjustment make such a big difference.

Phone cameras take very large pictures which doesn't work well with posting images on this site. You need to reduce the size. I typically do this by resizing images like to 800x600, for example. If you have to use a phone, take a screen shot of the image, trim if needed, and post that. Good luck and sweet ride! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

I email them from my phone to my desktop, I think I can send 10 pics. Just
before it sends the email it asks me what size. If it is more than one image I go with medium and can put a bunch.

I figured it out! The Model A is my dad's car. We went to a show a couple Saturdays ago
