Well it's been more than 2 years since i have acquired this 1.8 914, and I have to admit, while its not the most powerful Porsche, it's awfully fun to drive.
The list of items addressed has grown substantially even though the car was pretty solid when i bought it.

Since selling the 930 earlier this year, the 914 gets all of my attention now, and as a result, the 914 got these repairs done in the last 6 months....
New brakes...rotors, calipers, pads, and master cylinder
New fuel injection....4 new bosch injectors, new seals, all new braided fuel hose and clamps. I was then able dial in afr's on the L-Jet that eliminated surging high idle
Powder coated wheels and new Michelin 195/65/15 tires
Re-sprayed quarters and rear trunk, new taillight lenses, removed rear bumperettes
New windshield and seal
Re-built starter and alternator Now charges @ 14.2 V and starts every time
Lastly....age appropriate vanity plate

I am done for now.....just drive and enjoy
