Dear 914 friends -
At 76, I think I've got one more project in me. My Porsche genius friend Rick found me this in Cleveland: https://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/d/lake...7387301032.html And I have a contract on it for less than asking price. Friends in Cleveland looked at it closely on Wed. nite, sent me 7 close-up videos of it and gave it a huge thumbs up. Engine did run for few seconds with starter fluid, started immediately and sounded like new. Almost no rust, interior immaculate. This is a very rare Special Edition with custom interior, wheels and two-tone paint. Looking for a great source of info on 924's but can't find much. Nothing like 914 world. Any pointers for a resource like 914world would be appreciated - tho I'm sure there is none. NO - not selling the 914! My garage has room for both cars. TIA, GN |

@gatornapper Anthoni (924 guru) over in Oregon says hi, he's one of our header (924 n/a) customer's ; says that you found a decent 931 ! He uses our n/a race header on a modified 931 cyl head. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Anthoni has been helping me a lot on the 924 forum. Great guy. Once car is running well and on road, I'll be looking for some mods to improve HP/Torque, but doubt that headers will be on that list due to $$$. Want to keep car fairly stock but add M471 pkg. items. Thanks! Only problem is this being one of the best car forums on the planet, I'm spoiled by all the great help here. Only 3 or 4 have stepped up on the 924 board, Anthoni being one. Another, Cedric, in Sweden had ALL original Porsche Shop Manuals in ENGLISH for download! The guys that have jumped in to help all race their cars I think.......what a great resource. Wish I had the same for my 914.......
