One of the prior owners had a three ring binder w/ stuff he had printed off the internet. In it was a classified listing that had alot of familiar names on it. The listing was from 1997 from a 914 club that was on diginet or digi.com or something like that based in the midwest.
914-8
I remember the dgi.net site from '96 or '97, back in the prehistoric Internet times. Was a cool place with a lot of cool people.

Names I found

Mike Zois
Mike Mueller
Garrold Shafer(sp)

are the ones I remember right off the top of my head.

Also saw the first 914 I bought advertised on that list. That was around the time I bought it and became part of the madness.

I could be wrong but isn't that the old Renegade 914, Glenn's old site.?
Sure sounds like it to me. I saved ads from there for many moons to look at off line when breakneck Internet surfing speed was 28.8 Still have many months stashed here on my hd.

The header on the page said 914 club, no renegade mentioned. When I go to my Mom's next time I will grab that page,

He also had DD's 10 FAQ of 914 buying. An article by Jim Pasha and a posting repiled to by Sir Andy.

I remember the dgi.net days, before Pelican... That's where I found out that 99% of the 914's seemed to be located in SoCal. I bought a brain (which I prob didn't need but who knew they almost never went bad?) for my 72 1.7 from Otto's in Venice (got Otto's info from the dgi.net board). Before that site I was stumbling around a dark room looking for the light switch...

I remember printing out page after page of parts houses/recyclers. One of the the houses, Nebraska Porsche Recyclers near Blair, Nebraska was a couple hrs from Lincoln (where my dad had just moved) so we took a trip out there when I was visiting and I though I'd found the Rosetta Stone!

Damn, that was 10yrs ago and my car still isn't the way I'd like it to be! headbang.gif

I was still getting sheeplove.gif from AA until I found that site. And at the time I was considering getting rid of the 914's because of AA and the BS that went along with it. That site saved me life! driving.gif

the dgi classifieds were a real eye opener. came to the realization i was spending at least double on used gear locally. the *red barron* 914 was being parted out the first time i looked at the site. i wonder who bought the car?
