Just received my Feb '06 copy of Excellence. Wonderful article about 'Orange Rush', a '74 914-4 2.7l. Thanks again Excellence for recognizing the 914 as a true Porsche.

So what is so special about it? I read on the fine (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) Excellance website that has a 2.7 -4 in it, but no pics.

OK, so they want you to buy the mag instead of reading it for free on line. I get it.

I'm told to expect an Excellence article on this car in the spring. It will blow you away. I'll save my story on how close I was to greatness until publication.

Mr. Chambers is right...and there's gonna be a little (early) April fools in the same issue for all you 914 peeps, too.

Now, back to all those 911 stories. Gotta keep the troops fed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
