My 1974 2.0, bought in Redwood City, Ca. Sat in a garage since 1990, now it's back in action! Anybody else live in Santa Cruz and own a 914, 914's?
Hi, I live in Corralitos & have a green 1971-6 that I have completely restored. I, too ,love Porsches & this is our 2nd 914 & have had other models years ago. Maybe we will see one another on the road! Steve
I live over by Prunedale, and just purchased this '74 6-conversion in December. My first foray into air-cooled after owning first a 2000 Boxster, and then a 2000 Cab. I was autocrossing the Cab, and this became available through a club member. The purchase was over a year in the making, so it must be right.
Presenting.... Nina! The car had been a GGR TT car for most of it's life. After the 3.0 from a '78 SC donor was installed in early 90's, fulfilling the owner's dream, it was never tracked again and barely driven due to illness. She's back in action, and ready to pick up where she left off. I'm hoping to round off a couple of the rough edges, and enjoy her as much as possible! She offers me a lot that the cab didn't, but my wife is still not entirely elated with the change. No more fretting over handing things over to a valet though!
And yes, even though both do have some vestiges of attitude, Garfield and the IMSA spoiler will be gone very soon. Looks like a fun bunch in here! Bring your real 6 over to Marina for the AX this summer, the FAA is kicking us out after this season. Other club members would love to see your car!
Cheers,
Todd
