My son and I "jointly" own a conversion 914/6. We also have a storage unit with lots of 914/4, 914/6, and 911 parts. I converted my 1974 914 2.0 into a /6 using a 1987 3.2 I purchased from Camp914 in Portland. I kinda sorta went wild on the 914 upgrade, and created an Outlaw. For example, 914 Recaro seats, all LED lighting, electric heat and defrost, new floor panels from Restoration Design, Yellow POR-15 inside and out, Rebuilt the Tranny at a Dr. Evil workshop to his specs, installed a Getty Dash, and N. Hollywood recalibrated the 5 gauges to metric. Speedo goes to 300km.
I/we have a lot of leftover parts. Now my son who is active on the Facebook 914 group, has received an inquiry for the parts from a guy in N. California named Eugene. I just want to make sure he's legitimate. Anybody heard of him? Thanks!! Mike |

I bought my car from Gene 13 years ago. I knew the amount of work it needed but it turned out to be more than I thought. I still got a decent deal and would help out in his shop. He worked for himself for years here in Utah before moving to N. CA. I know he's looking for cars to flip/build/fix pretty much all the time.
