I'll up you one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)


I picked up a forth earlier this year, but soon after, sold another one ... leaving us with three 914s at present (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)


The plans are to drop a 2.7L-6 (CIS) motor in this 5-lugged '72 (my track car) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

that's a 70ies Fiat 500 L - it belongs to a neighbour who asked me if he could park it there
it's an Italien "Microcar" - more or less the Italien Volkswagen (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

here you can see it better

The newest teener to my stable. This is the seventeenth 914 I've owned.

Mr. Davis is a good guy and he'll take care of the little blue guy. I still miss that car soooo much. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I hope to see even more great things happen to it though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

1973 914, 50/50 car. Originally a 1.7L/4. When I bought it in 1985, it had a 2.0L/4 with webers.
Two years later, I learned that CARBURATORS ARE NOT SMOG LEGAL on a 4 cylinder 914!!! (PPI, kids, PPI !!)
DAPO had swapped in a 2.0L T-IV Bus(?) engine with Weber carbs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif). Clueless DACO bought it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
Well ... in my defense, it was probably the prettiest Lemon* in all of Northern California with it's fresh paint & re-upholstered interior.
*hiden crash damage, missing parts, rusty hell-hole, sick transmission...(PPI, kids, PPI !!)

Shortly after buying this 4 cyl. Porsche, my only 914, I learned there was such an Animal as the 914/6 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) .

Bye bye Gross-Polluter!
Over the Winter of 1987/88, I got B.A.R. referee approval and converted it into a /6 with a SMOG LEGAL '73.5 911T 2.4L-CIS engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
The fuel injected /6 passes smog inspections easily, has 50 more HP, gets better gas mileage, and has lasted 3 times longer than the carburated /4 could have ever hoped to.

A few years after the engine swap I bought & installed it's '89 Carrera front suspension/brakes, 911SC rear brakes and 6x15 Fuchs wheels. I also back-dated the front bumper, found a straight re-chromed rear bumper, replaced the plastic aftermarket mirrors with 911 Flag mirrors, and replaced the Flex-Dam with a LE spoiler.

If not for that sweet 911 engine, I would have sold this Porsche 20 years ago. Most likely it would have found the crusher by now. Smog related issues are a head-ache!

I drive it a lot! Its my favorite driver. I have driven it 220K miles since buying it.
I estimate there is 340K miles on the chassis now (original speedo removed before car found me).
The /6 engine has 290K miles on it now and still screaming along. 200K of those miles in this 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Thats my most recent wood-shop project in the background (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) . Ya think ye 'ol shop teacher will give me an 'A' now?

I'm glad the cabin is finally finished (10 yrs to plan, design, fight for permits & build). Now I can turn my attention back to my 914 and get restoration #2 started
(repaint, leather interior ... 3.2L DME(?)).

I just realized, that I left out the 73' conversion parts car. It is gone now. I've got to show it some respect. Here is the picture. made a great parts and conversion car. I almost kept it, but 2 914s is a little too much for me.Attached Image

two is a little too much? hmm , between my dad and i we have 3 of em. 2 are running and in daily operation, although my dad doesnt drive his daily, i drive mine daily and we are going to restore the third one. his current one is too nice for daily service. cherry red stored in a garage since about 89, he just started driving it here in the last couple of years. anyways i say you can never get too much of a good thing, right?

That is true, to a certain extent, and depending on what it is , for example...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) But I do miss the other 914 for some strange reason. I do wonder, though , how many people have more than one 914, thus the new thread........... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
