Good luck! Search lots...ask lots...you'll be just fine.

What part of Michigan? Looks like that dealership has quite a few 914s.

You are in good hands here.

Assuming you bought the car from George. I hope he took care of all the issues he found when he took it in.

I have a '75 1.8 as well, and I love it. It won't set any land speed records, but it is a great driver.

Yep, you can see both of my cars in the backgrounds, red 911 under the shelter at the far end, and red and black 914 by the road...

I remember that car, it looked like it was in good shape!
