Hi all I’m new to the forum and this is my first post outside the classifieds. I happened along this impressive site whilst searching for parts for my Type 4, 2 Litre, twin Solex VW Bus engine. I don’t own a 914 sorry
I’m located on the beautiful East coast of Australia a bit over 1 hour drive North of Sydney.
I knew nothing about 914’s before I arrived. In fact, now that I’m a bit more edumicated, I’ve realised a 914 was at the VW Nationals in Western Sydney last year. I had no idea why it was at the show or what it was! Anyway, I’ve lurked around the forums a bit and now have a bit of an idea what the fuss is about. Whilst I do own big heavy practical underpowered wallowing VW Bus, I’m a motoring enthusiast from as long ago as I can remember, and I certainly do appreciate the 914 concept and its execution. I’m rather intrigued to know how the type 4 feels when it’s got a light nimble body.
Anyway, that’s my modest intro. It would have been longer but I got stuck in the sandpit and found some rather dubious threads that were a bit like watching a train wreck
