Dude, I grew up in La Porte. Your right I can't remember ever seeing a 914. I've been in LA LA Land now for 13 yrs. and been a 914 owner for the last 7.
David Lee, we Meet last year. You got some parts from me when I came to Visit family in La Porte. Nice to see your putting together an event in good ol' Houston. Have a good time. -Mike D. |

Houston 914's
Mike, There are over 30 914's within a 90 mile drive of Houston. Most are in garages in pieces and I have been trying to bring a few of the owners together as sort of a "support group" to get more of them on the road. I am helping one owner with his 914-6 conversion and have been spending about 3 hours each weekend welding in his stiffening plates and mounts. His car should be ready for the body shop soon.
My rotary car has now been upgraded to a Chevy 305 with 911 turbo brakes. What a blast! I start on my roll cage on Friday. I hope we see a good turnout at the swap meet. There has been more interest with the 911 owners than the 914 crowd, but I am glad just to see the group assemble and get to know a few more Porsche fans. Good to hear from you.....David Lee |

I grew up and still live in Houston. Hell, My biology teacher in H.S. drove a beautiful 2.0. Two students had them one was a L.E. white orange car. I saw a bunch ...not many nowadays. ...used to be a fair amount at the local AX, still a few though. I have been thinking about buying one to do a 914-6GT car... I've got a bunch of spare parts from my 911.

Really good turnout. Lots more 914 than 911 parts, but definitely some hot deals. A good time was had by all, and there were even some donuts left over.
Thanks, David. Last edited by Paul Illick; 11-09-2003 at 02:02 PM.. |
