Picking up new 914, Subie conversion Options

[Mike1981]

Hello Everyone

I am new to this site.

Lurking for about a month

I will be flying down to Atlanta and picking up Pankopp's converted 914.

Pankopp has been very patient with all of my questions

It looks like a reliable car and I can't wait to drive it home.

If there is anyone from Michigan that has a 914 please chime in.

I am hoping to meet a couple of people with some experience maintaining these cars.

I am new to them but a quick study.

Thank You for any help you can lend

Mike

Kevin,

That's interesting - same thoughts occurred to me. I considered this car to be a decent starting point for a subi also, but had concerns about some of the body/metal work. Was too busy to pursue it. Glad someone did that's willing to dive in.

Welcome to the fun, Mike!

I agree

Car is not perfect but a good starting point.
I wanted a good runner, not a show car.
Looking to learn a lot from this experience.

Thanks for your input
