Just got a call about a teener in need of rescue. Six conversion (rebuilt 2.7, carbs), six oil tank, cage, lots of extras, described to me as the only good looking slope nose 914 ever. Not altogether, but not far off. Now I need another 914 like I need another hole in the head. But my other voice says buy, buy, buy. I guess I have to go look at it.

After much debating,I am keeping the wheels as I can offset the purchase of this car by selling a set of 15x9 Fuchs that I was going to use. The wheels were rougher than I thought, but are 15x10 & 15x8. I took them off the car and brought them home. The bolts for the connection(3 piece are shot) and I just ordered new ones. The front wheels had holes drilled to hold the bead like a dragster. I'll have to weld/fill these in. The rears are already at the polishers shop. The 2nd set of carbs are already gone and I have a guy going to look at the roller tommorrow.
Last night was like Christmas morning, opening all the boxes. Among the surprizes; a set of big Brembros, 14 2.7 heads, a Getty 911 style gauge cluster for a 914, molds for flared rockers, a 914 owners manual and factory tool pouch.
