Hey, that sounds like something I could do

cheers,

Jeroen

It's a damn fine lookin' car. Hows'a bout some detailed
pics....I might wanna' steal some ideas

I'm lookin to get rid of the heavy muffler on mine.
Whatcha got there?

shorty header, 2 into one leg pipe for scavenging and a dynomax racing muffler.

rear trunk and firewall gone for access, rewired for only what was needed.

Hummm.....that muffler "looks" loud....but light.
Yours is a racecar, while mine is neither fish nor fowl.

One of these days I'm gonna have to decide what to do with it.

aint no half street half track cars out there. Bought it with no interior did the felt thing with corbeau gt seats and 17in turbo twisties and slowly but surely after a couple DE's you see where I progressed.

Hi Greg, nice race car.

What are those wheels ?? Never seen them under any P-car.

Picked those very cheap, Ronal, 16x 8,9. Big replacement wheel manuf. in europe. BMW,
mercedes, etc. $200 for the set. My first line wheels are bbs's.

me on a color tour last sunday

I have owned this '73 914 2.0 for 25 years.

Auto X pictures...

My Ride - 70 with a 75 2.0 Euro pistons, Factory sway bars, Koin's, 19 MM master cylinder.

Interior pic...

This is my 1975 1.8 my wife said to throw it away, I thought if I cleaned it up she might even ride in it. All the chrome is powder coated and I built a custom interior. if any one is interested in more pics I will gladly email them. I am new to this forum and I am impressed. Every one seem willing to help with any problem. Way Cool! I look forward to meeting some of you at the local events.
Mike

Hey Fly,

cheers,

Jeroen

I've posted a few times so I figured it was time to post some picks.

I havn't made too many mods 19mm front sway bar with stock rear bar, 140 lbs rear springs and turbo tie rods.





Getting some use out of that luggage rack

Now, how did he post multiple pics? Nice car too, looks the same color as mine.

They are "posted" from another webserver:

B

he didn't ...

with the "Browse" option, you can only upload 1 picture per post.
but you can "link" to as many pictures as you want using the "IMG" button.
of course, they need to be on a public web-server to work correctly.

Andy

OH

I didnt even know you could have images imbeaded in the message

My Gawd! Sacrilege Just kiddin' wit'cha
Fly, I don't usually care for gold cars but yours is really beautiful First one I've seen. The light really sets of the color of the teener and shows its lines as low & sleek. Nice job. (Oh, & if you listen to yer wife... throw it my way)
bruce

For anyone who needs a plain Fuch wheel pic, *cough, Acox *..

it's spelled Fuchs with a s at the end ...
now if you guys could just pronounce it right

Andy

fine Mr german.

I always say fuchs, but when im refering to one, I say fuch, if is fuuuuk or is it feuk or fuuuuch or feuch..



Andrew

oh and ad an s to all those...


andrew

Fuchs is the name of the manufacturer.
that doesn't change if it's 4 or only one ...

4 fuchs wheels
1 fuchs wheel

it's pronounced:

f
u (as in you, but without the YO)
x (as in triple XXX)

Andy

thnxxx

I just got my new camera and the photos are to large or wrong format.
Check out my site for the 72 project:

Just wanted to get my car posted here after the paint job. I still can't believe how well it turnned out.

Nice paint job Paul. I think you better get a license on that thing, make it street legal & rip some ricers a new one!
bruce

Cough* point taken* Cough

Avatar Changed-

Fuchse = multple fuchs right?
or is that Fuchses?

look at that Fuchs walkin down the street.....

Licence? I don' neeed no stinking licence.

Paul

You can drive during the day, and use your hand as turn signals!! Just put a plate on from the front of your daily! , Although It might be a stiff ride.. Its sometimes bone jarring for me driving down the street, I pay attention to the small potholes, and completely avoid the larger ones..

Andrew

The easy part is the turn signals. See in Florida you're not suppose to use them, its the law. They are only to be used for driving down the road and not turning.

People retire to Florida and forget the rules of the road and complain about how everything was better "up home". BTW, I was born here, like you couldn't tell.

Paul

...throwing one more into the pot - I hope. My first try at a pic posting. Still a newbie I reckon, until the first car picture is successful.

Mine is a 914/6 [/4 conversion] vintage racer, first raced in 1993, always with VARAC in Canada. The quick and dirty: all steel narrow body [as per rules]; 2L six built as an S with some tweeks; built for fun; safety; and reliability. Most of rest of the build sheet is fairly normal stuff - happy to go into any detail if requested. This winter project is a close ratio gearbox to keep it in the happy-times power band.

Gavin

oops, you can see the sweat on my nose. How do I re-size this beluga??

done.

Nice ride! very sweet, indeed.

that looks like your spanking that mini cooper in the background!

...sadly, not! We have four or five well-prepared Cooper S' driven by - in at least one case - ex pro drivers, and they FLY. Never use their brakes, and always in a four wheel drift. I'd rather be in front, but watching these cars from behind is great entertainment. I'm about 2 secs slower than the best Minis. BUT I can usually count on more track time, as their engines and especially gearboxs regularly self-destruct. Then we get into the British car jokes!

Gavin

My new 914-V8. I bought this from a gentleman in San Diego a couple weeks ago. It is a '71 but has a lot of parts from a '75 on it. Resprayed yellow but did a pretty complete job of stripping first. It has a Renegdae modifiied 914 transaxle with 1st gear removed (or locked out) and taller 3rd, 4th and 5th.

It runs pretty well but needs a little tweeking. The cooling system lines are not run very well (one was resting against the header and melted through). Shifting into 2nd (now 1st) has been tough but getting a little easier (it may just need some breaking in). The rear tires rub (225/50-16 on 16x7 Fuchs) so I will be expanding the rear fenders a bit.

Rear shot.

1973, 1.7 (yellow is faster)

914rick - Nice saratoga top, how do you like it? Does it leak?
Eric

Hey Admin, can we edit this thread and put the pic only posts in a seperate place? I'd like to show some folks all the 914 club car pics, but don't want to wade thru all the yap yap post like this one to get there.

Thanks.

We need something like this here. http://www.vdubaddiction.com/members/ where each member can store info and pics of their car for all to see

Yeah, it doesn't seem like it would be too hard for ANDY to add in more fields for users to fill in, like maybe a picture.
