My new/old 914

Well, I picked up a 914 over the weekend that is close to my heart, I have to put it back together, but it is a keeper, 76, last year and I'm the 3rd owner.

This and my GT clone will be with me for life, but my light weight street/track project may go on the block.

I can see it.

My high school vice principal had one of those in 1974 (my senior year). I don't know what model year his car was, but he let me drive it a couple times and that was a BIG thing. I can't comment on its power because I didn't get a chance to romp on it, but it felt sooooo good going around corners. I'll never forget that feeling.

Well, he already gathered all the bits for a tricked out 911 susp, and powder coated, so I'll be swapping that stuff out, and I'm going to leave the 2.0 with duel Dells as is, but will be using my 2.1 twin plug beast in it. Ad my Konis seats, 16" Fuchs and drive

Not really, but if I can get a good deal on it due to the lack of interest in european cars at the Barrett, Ill pick one up.

Looks to be a real solid car Racer.

Yeah Luis....had I known back in the day that American Muscle would be worth so damn much I would have stored some away. I dont think many eruo cars see auctions that much...the owners know what they are worth and dont need to auction them.
