I actually got this idea from the 944 site. How about everyone tells everyone else about their 914 and problems accompanied with it?
I have a white '74 2.0. Pretty stock except for it's lower than stock and has black american racing rims on it (still 4 lug). Body is straight and little rust. Except for it needs a new undercoating. And a windshield. And seats: I hate the seat covers. Seal belt wouldn't hurt either. Blaupunkt stereo cd player with two speakers. That's about it.

Can't believe it. I thoughtI was the only one who almost gave up this MB for dead.
74 2.0 Euro P/C's 14lb flywheel, BIG WEB CAM. solid lifters, 44 IDF's, Birsch 4-2-1 exhaust SSI exchangers, (all spread evenly in my garage). Alaska Blue Metallic, Way low ride height, Corbeau Forza seats, fiberglass bumpers, Not a stitch of sound deading in the whole car.

I think the main reason this board is kinda dead is that the main 914 email-list is where the 914 fanatics primarily hang out!

Anyways, my car is a 73 2.0, basically stock except mildly track-prepped with corbeau forza seats, schroth 5-points, kumho dot-r and hoosier tires (hoosiers are on a set of panasport race wheels), 19mm front swaybar and 140lb rear springs, turbo tie rods, porterfield r4 brake pads, etc etc. Fun stuff...

I just bought me a spoiler for it. It's really neat and really enhances the 914's look.

I want a 959 please.

I would post a picture if I could figure out HOW ???? It appears that one must have a web site to post from, rather than just transfer in a pic from my puter files.....If this is the case, it's not very user friendly.

That "other" list makes it easy using a "browse" feature.

I just saw a metallica blue 914 tooling down the street. What a sexy color.

Hi Guys,

I've got two 914/6 numbered collections of rust.

One is currently being welded back into a presentable shape and will hit the road as a basically standard (well 130PS, S brakes etc.) 914. This project is only about 20 old at this stage and the body is not rerady for painting yet.

The other is likely to get married with a modified 914 that has a 2.2 S engine and full S running gear. I'm tempted to makt this one a wide body. At the current rate of progress the second one will hit the road in about 2010. Will the value have increased?

Irishdriver - but not driving a 914/6 yet

The other is at risk of getting

I'm already a member of the air cooled 914-914/6 group. I guess the "other 914 group" is in addition to this one. I clicked on the post to subscribe, but it looks like you can only get e-mails sent to you, as opposed to just logging in to check daily posts, like this one. I guess I'm confused, slow, or maybe both. Anyone else confused, or someone to straighten me out?
Oh, I've got a '74 on a rotisserie, which will eventually be geting an SBC. Progress is slow, but I plan to post pics as they become interesting.

Joe R & JPIII:
