This makes 2 914's in one week (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

It has some wiring issues, but it also has some SWEET Shea rear calipers
The CSOB charged me a premium b/c of the calipers, and the sucker I am, I paid it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) (true story)

I am supposed to pick it up this weekend, so i will post some more pics later

It has Dual webers, and supposedly 500 miles on a fresh rebuild.
It's a tailshifter, but the other car I picked up this week has a side shifter, so I plan on swapping it into this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Pretty chrome bumpers and some schweet Western Wheels, but those calipers were my real motivation. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Long term plan is to build a Vintage Race car :fingerscrossed: and i needed a pre-72 VIN
or i might make it a driver (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
not sure

Hey funny man. This car isn't even running, and it's still faster than yours (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Mike - How much was your last repair bill? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)
BTW - ASU v USC this weekend. What are you going to buy me this year? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I love the golf club covers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Dude, a 71 1.7 !

It might not be a legend, but at least you can drive a palindrome.

My therapist requires me to advise others that any more that one 914 is the start of a serious problem. Get out while you still can! Think of the children. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Not my fault. Intermittent electrical problem. I take no responsibility.

Like I said, it RAN.

At least you have those calipers... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)
