Just got a call about a teener in need of rescue. Six conversion (rebuilt 2.7, carbs), six oil tank, cage, lots of extras, described to me as the only good looking slope nose 914 ever. Not altogether, but not far off. Now I need another 914 like I need another hole in the head. But my other voice says buy, buy, buy. I guess I have to go look at it.

If the price is right, you must buy.

Shooting is too good for you. You should be made to suffer all the cosequences of ownership just for considering buying a second one. You should suffer worse than Pharoh during the plaques of Egypt. Suffer on the rack, a Chinese water turture on you. Burning at the stake is too good for you. How could you even consider it?

Any idea what shipping is to Washington?

Paul, you might know of this car. Dave Beck, son of the Beck replica guy, used to work at Dave Whites and built this car. I remember Dave but can't remember the car. Maybe after I see it I will remember. It has 1990 300 ZX headlights fitted with a custom hood, flares with 15x7 & 9s Gottis, boxed rockers.

Shit I got pictures of it at home. I'll post them when I get home.

It sat outside uncovered for several years. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

It sat over in Drew Park in a white trash apartment building parking lot. The pics were taken at least 4 years ago.

Good luck... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Thanks for the pix. I was dying to see what it looked like. More please. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

I'm not a slant-nosed fan, but I have to say, I kinda like it too.

That car was also in European Car (back when it had 914 content), and at one point (early 90s) had a 3.6 in it...

Buying another 914 has got to be the dumbest, idiotic decision you will ever make.!!!

Get over the notion that Teeners are fun and all that bull shit.

They are a pain in the ass and they don't work that well unless you put in about 4 - 10 times what they are worth..

Dude.. Get Real... Get over it. Take care of your family.. Spend your money wisely.

NOW since you aren't going to buy this Teenr. Tell me where it is... Cause I need a third Teener to go with my other two....

Anybody have that issue of European Car? Now I remember the car. Thanks Paul. Are there any 914s that you don't have pictures of?
