Hey Brad! Good to finally see this car, you told me about it several months ago. Looks like it has undergone a rear bumperette delete...maybe same time as the quarter panel work.

Anyway, just thought I'd mention how good a value this is knowing that you've done all the work that anyone else would have to do if they bought a car from a "regular" owner. The extensive work you did on my 74 1.8 liter last summer was impeccable so I'm certain this one is a beauty.

Post more pics.

Brad,

My name is Dale and I live in Pontiac. This is a really bad week for me and the 4th of July weekend is booked. I'd like to come over and look at the car. If it is still available, could we make a time when it could happen? During the day, or would it need to be one evening?

John and dflesburg are my two sons, and greatpumpkin is my grandson. We all have 914s....

Drop me a note.

Dale

I was at Brad's shop yesterday and he let me take this car for a drive. All I can say is WOW!!!!!!

This is a great car! It was very hard for me to walk away not calling my wife trying to find some way to bring it home.

I have never driven a 914 that felt so tight, no rattles, sqeaks, handles great, great power, it looks so close to new I couldn't beleive it. Guys, this a is agreat car for the money. If you are looking for a great car to just get into and drive and have ZERO issues, that this is the one. Give a Brad a call 309-684-1797.
