It appear that the roof is raised at the rear as well, and that cannot help. I presume that the roll cage is interfering. Can the cage be altered so that the Targa top will fit properly again?

More power to ya Wayne! Thanks to the facilities featured in your well detailed books and your Parts store, I am knee deep in a 3.0 rebuild and a 914-6GT recreation............. I am curious. Did you have any form of theft protection for the 914 stolen?

My mechanic Guru helping (can you say "leading") me in the rebuild of my SC motor is in HC near your shop / what a great resource Pelican is.

Cheers Forrest

The car was in a locked garage with the keys in the car (I didn't do that), so the answer to your question is *no*.

Pretty sure Wayne knows all about summer tires in cold environments as he literally wrote the book on all things Porsche....

We're trailering the car back from there to sunny Los Angeles sometime in December.

And yes, I've had a few "lucky" scares with cold tires when I was showing off a bit when I shouldn't have been?

Wayne when it gets down to freezing temperatures around here we just put the targa top on

We're happy to report that the 914 made it back to Los Angeles safely - check out some photos of it at its new home below!

+1!..A single GE 'landing light' on a Cessna will blind you - Boy!..What size of an alternator does it have to run all of dem candles.....The exhaust pipe is also very '525 hp' CAT'ish like eh

Cool little car. Lexan rear window would make the aural experience a little less punishing. Super ear plugs and a pair of muffs maybe...

Rear fenders are just stock steel that has been pulled some, or that is what it looks like was done to me. I like it. Good pick up, way to drive it, but is it street legal, even in Nevada? That could have been an interesting conversation on the side of the road with the patrolman.

Congrats Wayne. You've come a long way since the first time we met at dunkel's a hundred years ago.
There was duct tape sealing the leaky sun roof on your 911SC.

Enjoy the cars, you've earned them.
