So it turns out they have had the goal since the 50's of making the 911 bigger? Mission accomplished!

Very interesting article. Thanks for sharing. Does that make the 2014 the 50th edition?

I just can't believe they've found the 901 prototype in some mechanic shop in Ny!!! That's like finding a treasure. Why wasn't me that found it?!

I don't know about treasure in NY, but I know where there's an old 914 that's been parked a good 20 years.... outside....
