Oh come on! Against such amzing cars as the Studebaker, the Isetta and the Edsel? How can a 914 even compete?....
Okay, the Isetta's pretty neat though...
Of course I voted for the 914, they didn't have an NSU in the list...

The 914 for sure, although the 1962 Vette would be a close second.

"With his dad's help, Kenny has been able to restore the car to mint condition and find a buyer in Israel, who will have the rear of the car shipped to Israel for use on one of eight 1973 Porsches there."
"I think now I'm just planning on getting a normal car that doesn't need a bunch of work,"
HUH????

Do you win anything? Like a trip to where your car was made? Free gas for a year? Steel flairs with matching tires, wheels & paint?

Seriously though.. that was the parts car. It's an error in the article that he pointed out the first time around.

Click to view attachmenthey guys, i really appreciate the support of my car. incase your still wondering who i am, i am the guy with the 914 in the "my favorite car". but anyways, the orange 914 is being kept and the rear of the parts car was sold/sent to Israel (only 8 914's in israel!). those parts of the car will keep other 914's on the road, even if it is on the other side of the world!!

It is dominating. That '62 Impala isnice, pretty sure it won its class at Autorama a few years ago, like the old Merc too.
ALL the "Bee" newspapers suck BTW, it is almost funny how blatantly tilted they are politically

I do not believe this is a contest any longer. Is there any one else in your area aware this is open to vote?? We seem to be the only people involved. It may be when they saw a 914 on the chart they all just threw in the proverbial towel. MSG L
