I have owned this '73 914 2.0 for 25 years.

It's great to finally find a decent 914 web site and forum.

Gorgeous car and welcome to the BBS. This is an exciting place...stay tuned...

The black out trim is beautiful, I wonder why more 914 cars aren't done this way.

Do you know there is a great group of 914 owners near you...?

They call themselves:
Southern
Michigan
Owners
Group

SMOG for short. Somebody speak up and get Don involved...

The Black Trim was all Powder Coated, many years ago.
It is very, very durable.

I live in Grand Haven.

The 914 is a '73 2.0 with lots of little tricks and mods
over the years.

I prefer the "lighter" contrast of the chrome on this color.
I think it they tie in well with the bumpers and the wheels.

Color matched wheels are awesome.

Welcome Don!

I like the car, nice! Very Nice! We're having a fun run down here in Nashville, IN Oct 18. I think there are a couple Michigan/Northern OH guys coming down. We'd love to have you, too!

welcome, Don. Great car. Let me personally invite you to become a member of our little group - SMOG (Southeast Michigan Owners Group). you certainly don't have to live in SE MI to be a member, but you do have to pay the annual membership fee of $0.00 which covers everything. Just send me your e-mail address and I'll get you on the mailing list. We have a few events a year when we get together for a drive and a bite to eat, and maybe a winter get together with our "other" cars too. I will be heading down to Sean's Ind. event in a couple of weeks and I'm trying to drum up some interest with the group to get some other members to attend. I hope to see you there. I'll certainly recognise ytour car if it's there.
