Yikes. Fire damage? Usually they occur in the engine compartment. What happened?


Apparently it was vandalism... I guess the guy who owned the shop which did most of the resto work had upset a few local people. This is the story I'm getting at least.

After I've stripped it I'm going to give it to Mike at Mike's 914s, the rear end of this thing is perfect and I'm sure he can use it to save another 914.

Been a while since I've posted in this thread.

Here's the old 'BB' the morning of it's inaugural journey with the new drive train. Took this shot just prior to leaving for the Lake Havasu 2012 Route-66 Run.

It's a '75 with '71 bumpers, ATS wheels with Michelin 195/60x15s, new calipers and M/C, S/S fuel lines, fresh Type-4-Unleashed 2056 with Weber 40IDFs and CSP throttle linkage, VJR4-BR8 dizzy with Pertronix, mated to a freshly rebuilt THOMAS transaxle, SSI H/Es and a Triad muffler.

Changed the interior from black to tan

It ran pretty good on it's 'maiden voyage', but still needs a little fine-tuning jetting work on the carbs and the front suspension rebuilt.

Hi, here is my '75 1.8 F.I. acquired last Aug. 2011. A few history of this car, got from my nearby neighbor sitting on his drive way with Non-op with last registration of 2003. We just pushed the car from previous owner house to my house about a quarter mile. Bought new battery, remove the gas tank and amazing the left gas I drained is clean and no rust on the tank, changed all fuel lines underneath the tank (still original rubber fuel lines), replaced all fuel lines along engine and all vacuum lines, changed oil and transmission fluid, changed tires from 165x15 (I believed still the original tires made from Brazil tire) to 185x65x15. I had a hard time starting it until after more trials of starting it, it did start. So did checked and replaced brake pads and some cleaning on the pedals. Still a little bit sticky on the brake pedal. Now I've been using it once in while and running it for about 30 to 40 minutes drive, the temperature does not even go half way of the temp gauge. Still a lot of things to fix on this car but I love driving it even without the 1st gear (issue on the transmission which they said is common on 914).

Before I got it:
