You bought another 914? Group: Benefactors Posts: 7,622 Joined: 27-June 03 From: Portage, IN Member No.: 865 Region Association: None |
Found out last year that my wifes cousin has a 76 914 that he is restoring. His 20yr son bought a 74 2.0 last fall, in good driver shape. This past monday Rick (wifes cousin, father of 20yr) was driving the 74 when on a on ramp to I94 he hit a slick spot which caused the 914 to spin nose first into the cement median.

Rick was able to walk away, well sort of, he broke his right heal bone. The car is totaled. Rick finds out on monday if they will need to operate to fix his heal. I haven't seen the car yet, but I will post some pictures when I do. Police said he wasn't speeding, they found a big oil spot on the ramp that Rick didn't see. Sad to see another 914 bit the dust, but at least Rick will be fine in time. |
