It’s not every day that you return from work to find a large box in the driveway:

I bet I know what your doing this weekend. Looks like you got a helper to hand you tools too. Just need to teach him wrench, socket, 10MM and 13MM and you'll have the perfest assistant.

Sure is purdy. Thanks guys, it really does look nice, hope she runs as good as she looks! Sure is Prudy!! Who built it for you, H.P. TQ. Rough cost, Details man, Details, It’s from e-bay and was very reasonably priced. Here is the link to the add 2.4 engine I could not build up the 1.7 engine the way I wanted for the purchase price including shipping from California. |

Another local 914!
Good to see they exist in MD. Beginning to think I was one of maybe two here. |

The motor a (2.4 four) is in, SSI's, Triad West, Anti Sway, Bilsteins, 180lb springs and a deep sump. Still to go 2.0 combo gauge and some misc wiring. Finally getting close (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i146.photobucket.com-6468-1350673865.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i146.photobucket.com-6468-1350673865.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i146.photobucket.com-6468-1350673865.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i146.photobucket.com-6468-1350673865.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i146.photobucket.com-6468-1350675886.1.jpg) |

"yup did an engine swap, it was a 2.4 presidential term build"... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Pulled the motor during Clinton Back in during Bush Obama fired it up! |
