I didn't want to add much weight for something that doesn't make the car faster.


OMG, that statement is like music to my ears... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif)

It discribes my life's work! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Paul...
I totally agree with you!
we will never match your weight... but I'm very happy with our own weight at 1850 wet (19qts oil, 4 gallons gas, all metal body panels, and a big fat -6)

Brant,

Rule #1. If it doesn't make it go, stop, or turn, it gets cut off.

Rule #2. See rule #1.

Hey Guys,

I just wanted to point out something on my car. It's a tow bar that weighs about 15#'s. It's bolted on with (11) bolts into the front trunk metal. Very sturdy and can be used to move your 914 around. Dont' need to call AAA, just call the wife with her SUV. I know it's not for everyone, but I like it. My car is so low it protects me when I go over curbs, etc & I can tow it on long hauls.

Tom
If anyone is interested I can get the dimensions for you (see pic).
