I know the skart was expensive, but it sounds great, best four sound ever. And it seems to pull really well. Car seems very “together”. Really nice job.

Summer evenings when the sun goes down....a cocky BMW driver was all over my ass but he couldnt take a tight roundabout in the same speed and launch out of it like my 914 does. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Went to a local car meet with a nice mix but the car stereo guys kinda ruin it for everyone when you cant talk when standing 5-6 feet apart. Coolest car of the evening was a really nice Volvo Amazon |

Well as I have put it up in the 914 group on facebook I might aswell mention it here too. The car is up for sale. I have summarized all the details in this post on my webpage: https://matsgarage.com/?p=1730 I know most readers here are US based but since there is a few europeans maybe it will interest someone. |

Good luck with the sale, Mats. It's a beautiful car and someone will really enjoy it.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do with your time and money as well, and hope to still see you around here from time to time. |

Thanks Navy, I'll be around here because I doubt it will sell quickly. And I have learned alot in the last 8 years and like helping others when I can. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Good luck with the sale, Mats. It has been enjoyable reading your thread and admiring your beautiful 914. Someone will be a lucky owner of a nice 914.
So you're finally pulling the trigger on a 911? |

Probably not, I dont really need the pretend backseats. And I have already had a 911, I sold my 964 before I got the 914. Going to add to whatever the car sells for and aim for a 981 Cayman S or Jaguar F-type. Since I'm building a super seven type of car I feel having two cars that only gets driven in fair weather is one too much. |

Made a short overview video of my digital dash setup and my oil pressure warning alarm. Let me know what you think or what you would do differently. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Mats. Was going through your old build admiring all the work.
One question for you. Do you remember where you got your custom Martini floor mats? Looking to do a set of those in another car. I know it's been a long, long time. Ha Thx, Doug |

Maybe there are someone in Europe on here that would be interested?

Last ride with my son in the 914 a few days ago. Now she is fully fueled and newly polished waiting for her new German owner to pick her up on friday. Good luck Martin and take good care of her. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) |
