Cool! I bought a new ‘73 1.7 in Buena Park when I lived in Fullerton. Grew up in that town. Skyline Dr. was a great twisty in those days. La Habra Heights had a great selection of roads back in the day also. Lots of good 914 memories from those days.

Something tells me you may have an addiction when you buy a 914 and call it your first. Many here have or had multiple 914s. Welcome to the madness.


I'm down to "only" three myself!

Welcome. I picked up my first 914 just about a year ago from a member here (a 75 2.0) And have been having fun. Look for the cars and coffee at the Enderle center in Tustin (usually posted by Steve). I don’t get there too often but look forward to seeing you there (I am close by in La Mirada BTW).

Cheers, Joe

Been a couple months of having the 914 worked over.
All hoses replaced fuel and vacuum
Brakes reworked , steel braided lines, master reworked
Alternator rebuilt, new injectors , coil, plug wires, most all rubber items replaced.
Its in the capable hands of a board member who has been going threw it , to get it back in shape. Its very close to getting done, and back on the road !
