I have not been here in awhile...need to work for living. Thanks for the nice comments about "old blue." The car was primarily built by a gentleman who unfortunately lived in a area where 914's were not so well known. Frustration, I believe, set in due to not having good mechanics and friends like Wes Hildreth(pictured), Rich Johnson and Clay and others. The car had several bugs to work out and we are about there. It does sometimes have the teener disease of "jackstanditus." But, I refuse to let it stay there and go drive it.....and got caught in the rain , at night, with my wife and no windshield wipers! The Car is a dream for me. I am a long time 914 lover. I have a 74 2.0 that I bought new in Shreveport, LA. I thought I would always love that car, but "old blue" has stolen my emotions. It is quicker than a stock 2 liter. The cars are a great attraction for me, but the people are what makes it. I have had so much help I can't thank all of them. Good folks at the AR in Abq. Really enjoyed the trip and hope to make the Moab run, if work allows. later mike
I attached a pic of a bear we saw when we came down off Sandia Peak. Notice that the "bear detector" went off.
