When I was in college the rich kid that lived down the street from my then girlfriend had a yellow 914-6 with the square flares you are using and I was head over heels in love with it. I SO wish I would have thought to ask him to contact me before selling it. Not that I would have had the money for it. Probably would have cost like $5,000 in those days - all the money in the world to me then.

Can't wait to see how yours comes out Hey, if you ever want to sell it.........!
Dan,

The 914 Porshe is not BC's it belongs to a buddy of ours name Donnie. That is is 55 Belaire also. Anyway to answer you question, Donnie has a 6 Speed Trans G86/20 out of a 2001 Boxster that is going in the 914. He has be driving and enjoying the 914 for the pass month are so.
