What a difference, I now drive a perfectly usable car, need to keep working on the details, minor oil leak, carburation, time, oil change, and now We can play with it.
First 400miles on the motor refurb.

Let’s see your babies, 914’s only please!
We really don’t care what kind of POS water-cooled you drive. Unless it’s a 914 V-8 conversion of course!
Sorry our pic is a bit crappy.

So P2O was held this past rainy weekend just outside of Columbus Ohio. About 100 cars showed up. Great show except for the couple of monsoons that blew in and then left just as quickly. The last time my car saw rain was back in the mid 80's when we drove to a weekend event in Louisville KY.
We were lucky enough to take 3rd place in the people's choice and I am still keeping my record intact of losing to a 356's.

The Bee is really nice. When I put my 73 back together the front rubber bumper top looked a little low like yours and realized it was missing the rubber washers… once we put them back the top alignment was perfect. Not a big job but well worth it. The blue car above appears aligned well, for comparison.
Purchased in 1982 (9140432178). Begin “upgrading” it around 1984 . Perry Kiehl took over my basket case and created what you see here. Dr. Evil 901, Pat Williams built full EFI from a 1975 2.7S that I bought many years ago.

Nice touch for a black car with the clear side markers and Euro turn signals. Neat license plate, too!
Some fresh ones of my car - finally making better progress after a few years of mostly sitting in the garage & shop! I'll update my build thread too soon.
@campbellcj Looks Great!
Two light ivory GTs in New Jersey ?
Another fresh one - the car is finally running really well again after mostly sitting since 2017/18!
Here's mine! '74 1.8L (rebuilt as a 2375) with A/C. It's a bit of a "sleeper".

Great looking car!
Here are a couple photos from this summer. My car is the 924, still on the hunt for a 914. My buddies car pushed me over the edge to get one again.
This is from the PCA Maverick Region front page on the internet.

The blue 914 on the left is Elwood, our factory six. The red 914 on the right is my 4.0L six conversion.
The 911 in the middle belongs to Ed Mayo. It's a concours winning 72 911S. It is immaculate. We are in good company.

recently bought 70 914-6
My dad and I were into 914's back in the 90's. Mine a Delphi Green 73 2.0 and his a Black 74 2.0. We went to a few 914 OA events and loved hanging out together with our cars.
As the 90's came to a close, my wife and I had our daughter and family life took over. I sold my car to a gentlemen in Belgium. Dad sold his car to someone in So Cal and we lost track of the cars and moved on with our lives.
In 2015 I stumbled upon my Dad's car being featured in a detailers video. My dad was able to track down the owner because of this. Unfortunately, the owner was not interested in selling the car back.
My dad kept in contact with the gentlemen over the years through email and life went on.
This summer the owner contacted dad and said he was ready to sell. Dad had recently purchased a newer Boxster and didn't have the room. I had just sold a truck and camper and had room to spare so I bought the car.
After all these years, it's back in the family....

...I still think of it as Pop's 914 so I got the license plate.
For you folks that have been in the 914 scene for a while, you might remember the car featured in January 2000 issue of European Car.
I also went out and picked up another 914 I will build up on my own again. I am looking for parts and will post up WTB in the classifieds.
I know the car is on a trailer backwards and that will draw the ire of many, but the car made the 2 hour drive in 110* home with no problems.
it is a one owner 74 2.0 off the road since 1990.

What a great story thanks for sharing. Nice that you could bring it back to the family. I assume you both have been driving it! 
Unfortunately I live @ 6hrs north of him but we are shooting for getting both cars to Tahoe.
