The car is a 1972 914 with the 1.7L engine. It has the GT flares and a 916 front valance. This makes the for the 3rd 914 in my city. However, out of the 3, I am the only one to drive their 914. Handling on the car is phenomenal, holds tight through any corner and powers through corners extremely well. Mid-engine layout, which makes for awesome weight distribution. However, it is a little underpowered with only 80hp, but it is definitely enough for this lightweight car. Targa top makes for a great summer drive. The car is mainly a project vehicle at the moment, I plan to paint it and replace the floor plans and after that drive it everywhere during the summer months only, absolutely no snow or salt on this car!
