I am new to the 914 world, no pun intended. In my mind I have it that I am going to build a 914-6 GT of some sort. I have looked at several examples of "project cars" from Patrick Motorsports. The silver and red tribute build and the "mean green" seemingly have many of the things I would think make up a very good car.
I have many questions: how practical is a 3.8L in a strengthened 914-6 for daily driving? Needing heat and defrost as I live in and near the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia. What kind of up keep, don't want to be fiddling and tinkering with it, just want to drive it and maintain it? Anyone having experiences with Patrick Motorsports? Anyone having suggestions as to other builders/ shops? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I need advice....thanks in advance. |

QUOTE(mepstein @ Feb 8 2020, 07:14 PM)  What’s your budget? As always, there is a budget. However at this stage of this "project" I am seeking information. I'm not sure giving you a dollar amount helps you respond to the original question(s). Are you personally familiar with Patrick Motorsports? Do you have experiences with other builders/ refurbishers? |
