I am looking for the family 914.6 when I was a kid that was basically hocked for cash {Don't get high on your own supply} in the mid 80's in the Fort Lauderdale area.

About the car. Red top, extended wheel wells, black Fuchs wheels, chrome bumpers, red duck tail. Radio was Blaupunkt. Black interior.

The engine had dual 3 pack webers, a slight misfire at idle until you stepped on the gas. The car could smoke the tires off the wheels if needed. Engine was built by someone that built racing engines for IMSA.

If it is known where the car is I would love to have it back or at least see it. I think I remember the Florida tag but I do not know the Vin#

Picture is for similarity only and not the one im looking for.

Please Help if you can. Brian

I have an extensive database of 914/6s and would gladly search it for your car but there is nowhere near enough information here to do any kind of search for a red 914/6 with flares sold in the '80s. The VIN would be the ticket. If you don't have that then I'm gonna need some more info. Like the name of the person you sold it to or the name of the person who built the engine or a real photo of the car.

I was able to find the person that built the engine. He did not respond but his son did via Facebook. The son reached out to his father and he remembered the car but had not seen it since the mid 80s either. Guess he wanted to leave that part of his past behind. Im still searching and won't ever give up. Just hope its still alive.
