In these times where the value of 914s has become so high as to be unreasonable, and too many fussy concours types have entered the arena restoring 914s to such a level that they are un drivable, it is so nice to see one that can actually be driven but is still nice enough for a fairly picky 914 guy like me:
1975 914 zambezi green with buckskin 1.8, original paint never rusted or crashed, gut plenty of original patina 122 thousand miles: some nicks and dings, dash cracked, first gear scratches, rear springs are sagging a bit, needs some shifter bushings, but just runs so great with the 1.8 afc fuel injection and heavier bumpers that make it feel more stable. The blaupunkt am fm isn't bad either! My new driver! NOW I do not need to worry about a door ding More 914s like this encourage people to drive them every day and not put them away under flannel car covers. |

@altitude411 and @kelty360 comments seem mean spirited.
Some go through life tearing others down thinking it elevates them. They can't see how foolish this makes them seem. And then others pile on... Doesn't make sense to me. |

Doesn't make sense to me. @jagalyn Jeff, I know you are and a big AA supporter, I'm sorry your web site is no longer supported but... This isn't high school or the Disney channel(all animals do not dance arm in arm). It's a car forum. George is advertising cars that he has for sale by posting this bullshit in the garage forum. I am tired of his relentless insidious postings. I am not trying to "elevate myself" by any means. Just calling out a charlatan for what he is. You obviously haven't been swindled by this shyster as yet so your opinion of him is different than mine. For that I am happy for you. Other than that, if you have a problem with any of my posts, please send me a PM and we can discuss my foolishness in private or over the phone if you prefer. The people that are "piling on" as stated by you, are others that have been lied to or cheated by the self appointed Dr. Do-little. I sincerely hope this makes sense to you.Thanks for the couch time.
