I was on my way to Lowes in east york when i spotted a white 914 parked off industrial way, top off and it was bueatiful. it was a 1.8 and the front and rear valences were gloss black to match the rockers. it had the original l-jet intact and the interior was awesome. I was not the only person stopping to take a look, a lady on her cell phone was talking to someone and she said "a bueatiful 944 parked outside" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) So i had to correct her.

as i was taking a picture the owner came outside a talked to me for a bit, his name was Dan and he was a very nice guy. I dont believe he is a member here but i told him about the sight. He also has a blue 73 in the works. I told him about the hershey caravan and he said SURE.

i will send a link to this thread to him.

Hey Dan, should you choose to pop in here for a bit, the other York area owners say hi.

I've seen your car around a few times. Waved once, but I was on a bike, not in my 914, so I did not expect a wave back.

Anyway, I hope to see you around!

i just noticed that the plate is historic, wich means inspection exempt, but the inspection stickers are on the windscreen. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) interesting

You have your tags wrong, Joe.
Historic tags still need to be inspected annually. You don't need the emissions inspection if your car is older then 1974. if it is 75+, it needs to be inspected like any other car.

Antique tags do not need to be inspected, but have more draconian rules attached to them.

No shit.

USE OF ANTIQUE AND CLASSIC REGISTRATION PLATES

The use of antique and classic plates is governed by Section 1340 of the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code which states: “It is unlawful for any person to operate a motorcycle or vehicle with antique and classic registration plates for general daily transportation. Permitted use shall be limited to participation in club activities, exhibits, tours, parades, occasional transportation and similar uses.” Occasional transportation and similar uses is defined as one day a week.

I have been thinking the same as Spraggi.

This has Aircooled Racing all over it. Fantastic looking car!
