[QUOTE="blassoff, post: 1458771, member: 18977"] Yep....Dogs don't scare me too much, I always wanted an excuse to purchase a welding kit. Still have an original shop manual and spec book somewhere. Back in the day I used to drool over Automobile Atlanta's website, that genuine 916, wholly crap. I think it was available for under $200K. Mine was a 1976 2.0, white with black accents. (I lifted the bumble bee picture somewhere). I wish I could come up with a reasonable excuse to shop for one, my bike is taking the space in my garage where the 914 used to reside. If memory serves they built 123,000 914's, less than 4000 six cylinder models. I was perfectly happy with the 2 liter 4, it never screamed but was really surefooted and so sweet in curves. It's funny, my wife would look at it and say "why do you like that car, it's a rust bucket". My response was always "cause you can't see it from behind the steering wheel". Porsche's are race cars at their heart. The 914 is a fabulous machine. I need to stop dwelling on it. I envy you, but I'm likely never going back there. It doesn't make sense for me anytime soon. Thank you for the trip down memory lane. You always miss the ones that got away, thank you! [/QUOTE]
