Just wanted to introduce myself. I am Kiowa from Tarrytown NY.

I just picked up a 72 914. It needs a little TLC to bring her back to life. I basically taking inventory of what I need. It the moment when am looking for early chrome bumpers. It currently has the aftermarket fiberglass (GT -look) one. If anyone has one let me know. I am sure I will be looking for more parts and tech support later on.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome Kiowa and like what you are thinking on the switch to chrome bumpers. Have fun with a great little car!

Congrats! Looking forward to hearing and seeing more. How much rust is there? Is it driveable currently?

Cheers,

Nice. Have fun with it.

Surprisingly very, very little rust. The good it looks pretty solid. It should run fine. Just want to go over things first before setting
Out on the road. The Bad- bad paint and bad bumpers. It should be very correctable and have a nice little driver. Should be much cheaper than the 73 911 I just had freshened up!

That front bumper, albeit fiberglass, looks like it is fitted very well. I don't own one but I like those bumpers.

welcome, I am hosting a tech session/bbq july 13 just across the river, come meet some of the local 914 guys.

Welcome to the mid-engine madness!

Your car is a beauty!

I'm about 15 minutes from you. Nice to have another teener in the hood. Enjoy and welcome to the addiction!

Hello

Greetings from New Baltimore

Always nice to add a new member to the madness.

Welcome, and drop everything and get to that tech session.

Thank you all for the kind welcome! I think I have a great lead on the bumpers with a longtime user! ( just a heads up not sure if it’s common I did have another lead with nice pictures and the request for payment in Bitcoins). I am not passing judgment, just unsure if that is a common request.

That's not common at all; likely a scammer. Paypal is generally king among members here.

Nice looking 914.
Welcome to the 914 community. There is a wealth of knowledge here and many willing to help.
Enjoy your new toy.
Bill.

.....someone may want to swap bumpers with you

Have a great time at the World. The people here know so much on these cars.
