This was 6am the morning or our first race at Sebring. Been up all night to get her ready and she ran perfectly after not being off the jackstands for 8 months, not even for a test drive.

I have the picture out of the Auto Trader where I found it. Very bad shot.
And others that I need to scan. Scanning pictures is a PITA.

Every time I see your car Howard, I like that color more and more ....


What is the color name? Is it a "P" color?

A 914 I should have kept. Factory silver early 73(no door beams) 1.7, prime 914 for a six conversion.

Maybe a little later than 78'? Those rims on the back are 7's, didn't they come out on the 944's first? The fronts are 6's. Friggen sweet picture!

Posted by: sixnotfour May 5 2005, 12:12 PM

15x7 ATS wheels came out in 1976 , 911 Carrera , rare back then and still cheaper than fuchs.
He was pretty proud of them. They look better on a 944

I think they look pretty bad-ass. You know I have that set from the wife's car just sitting around. If I can ever find the time, maybe see what they would look like on my 914?

I never knew they came out as early as 77'. Always liked that style.

Posted by: sixnotfour May 5 2005, 12:29 PM

I was 18 that would make you 8 at the time. Time Perspective

FYI I edited they actually came out in 1976 or even 74 Carrera I dont know for sure

Posted by: RoadGlue May 5 2005, 12:49 PM

Here I am after just getting my first 914 back in '97 or '98.

FWIW, I really like the 5-lug ATS 15x7's and have a set that I'll be running in the next few months. They look aggressive and weigh next to nothing.

Actually about 5, born in 73' Old fart.

That would explain why they look "Period correct" on a 914 to me. Funny that Porsche really just took an almost decade old rim and slapped it on a brand new model (944). Not that I would be complaining, they look good on 944's. Just never new the 7's were made so early on. I learned something new today!

My first 914-6. Made the cover of local PCA mag, shot during a skidpad exercise. Quite a surprise when I opened the mailbox. Car now lives with Jeff Fort in Ohio.

No helmet for autox in Oregon?

Posted by: Porsche Rescue May 5 2005, 02:45 PM

Noticed that myself. Did a quick edit but not quick enough. It was on a skidpad during our fall "Rainbonnet" festivities. No helmet required.

Taken this past April waiting my turn for AX. Yes, I have a hemlet but didn't feel like roasting while I waited

Not my car, not my photo. BUT, I think this is one of the coolest 914 shots I have seen. It is from Armando Serrano's site. I don't have permission to use the photo (but hey, it is on the web...) so if anyone is offended let me know and I will take it off.

"Thank you for calling Onstar. How can I help you today?"

"Hi, my name is Jen, I am cute, and these freaks with odd colored hair are cutting my car up with saws."

"Ok, I am showing that if the light is constant, you can continue to drive..."..

"Hello?"

"Hello, yes. Than you for calling Onstar. How can I help you today?"

"Look, people are cutting up my car... with saws."
