Hope you enjoy. Its my first attempt at posting a video on YouTube.

Thanks for the ride! smilie_pokal.gif

The car sounds great and looks awesome from the inside. Nice leather wrapped steering wheel too.

Nice drive ...

Very nice. Looks like Gwinnett County? I spent many a Summer up that way. Love Georgia.

That is highway 197 near Batesville! I live about 15 miles from there! Stop by for a visit in Clayton. I was bicycling that road last Friday! Terry

I've been meaning to drop you a line. I need to make it up that way and say hi sometime. If I recall you have the same car as me and you have for while. I would love to compare the two. I'm pretty sure the PO of my car changed a couple of random things on mine. beerchug.gif

Thanks. Next purchase will be an external mic. I love the sound of these cars so much I want to really dial it in.

Thanks, Close. Its Habersham County GA.
I've lived in Florida for the last 7 or 8 years and no doubt North Georgia is the place to be in the summer. I like the temp. and the 914 likes the roads. I do like Florida for the early summer and late fall! and a nice cruise along the beach is also hard to beat. beerchug.gif

Thanks, and your welcome! I've spent hours watching videos like this on youtube, even (maybe especially) after I got my car, and I wanted to try to make my own to give a little back. More to come! I'm thinking Richard B Russell Scenic Hwy. next.

When my car has had leaking injectors or broken clutch cable tubes or (what ever is next on the list), I have relied on videos of others driving their cars around for my 914 fix (no pun intended). I can only imagine how much some of the brave souls on this site doing the good work of saving rusty old 914s that are far from being on the road are going through.

I used to spend the Summers performing in a circus (no joke) at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, which is about an hour south of Atlanta. Great roads down there in Harris County as well. If I ever come back up that way I'd love to catch up with you guys!

And at one point you were less than 5 miles from Aircooled Heaven! You also drove right past my Grandparent's house :-)

Now you guys can see why we choose to operate here.

I keep hoping I'll meet the Porsche Type "456" on the road one of these days. Closest I came on this drive was the VW Bug at 9:30 and I don't think that was very close. I'll check your site for progress... Very cool project!

My other hat is a targa top. biggrin.gif I need to put that on a baseball cap with a 914 logo.

You'll see it in the fall.. Just no time to pout it back together, been gathering some parts.
