I thought it would not happen for another year or two, but I got a surprise blessing to spend $X,000 on a 914. When I first mentioned getting a 914 to my wife some time back, she asked "is that one of those boxy things?" I didn't know if I could convince her that buying an ugly car (her opinion) was a good idea, but then I realized that I convinced her that marrying me was a good idea, so I thought there was a great chance. After warming her up over the last few months with pictures of nicely done 914's, she sort of thought they were nice. Now that we got it, she loves it. She thinks it's cute. Now if she could just think the same of me.
OK enough blabbing. Here's the car: Advertised as a "1974 Porsche 914 hard top convertible one owner" edited price to protect the innocent (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) This post has been edited by phantom914: Jul 21 2005, 09:34 AM Attached image(s)

Really cool car! Love the documentation you have on it. That was a steal!
By the way the 1-2-3-4 buttons on that "stereo" seem to indicate it is an 8-track player. Now that is a period piece! 4742921370 is the last '74 made, that one is late in the run for sure. |
