My dad just bought a 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 4 cylinder at a car auction. It has a new white paint job and is in pristine condition. First id like to know a ball park of what is worth, just for kicks cause we don't plan to resell it any time soon, and Id like to know what inexpensive mods i can do to improve it and make it feel more like mine.
I am a highschool senior soon to be college student and am super excited about owning this car. It will be replacing a 1973 mg b that was my first car. Right now the car is parked without plates waiting to be bought by me from my dad and as a way to relieve some of my excitement I have been doing research and forum browsing.

Welcome...First off, I must warn you. There are some jerks here that are going to give you a hard time. Do you have thin skin? Second, I am one of the jerks. You are going to love your teener. I had a 65 MG b, what a POS. You will discover in your research that the front suspension is basiclly the same as a 911(up to 1989), as a matter of fact a 911 suspension bolts right in. It's a go-cart for the street. And wait until you get a load of some of the 914's here...Especially the turbo 6's and the 8's. The subi conversions are kind of cool to. |
