I posted a few weeks back that I was going to be getting a 914 from my wifes aunt. Well I towed it to Pittsburgh from DC 2 sundays ago and I'm finially getting pictures up. I'll be keeping this up to date with pics of the progress on the car. I'll be open to any suggestions you have. Now on to the pics.


Is that a 914 under all that junk?
