    The 914

    Here is a car I first saw in the late 70's when it was being auto-crossed by it's original owner. Maury is almost 90 now and still carrying on the
    auto-cross tradition. He had a lot of success in the car. I was very happy to bring it home 5 years ago.

    Maury did this article a while back and it's been reprinted in the Blue Ridge Region PCA newsletter.

    They are wonderful cars. A 1973 2.0?

    Yes they are. I had a rough 1.7 rust bucket in HS I found in the back of a VW dealer's lot. It had holes in the heat exchangers, leaked like a sieve, stunk up the interior when the heat was on but I was as proud as if it were a show car.

    This was an early car, one of the 1st batch on the East Coast. Purchased 10.72. It is a 2.0. His documentation is amazing. 75K miles.

    Consider this from the attachment. Maury's records:
    After many years and over 200 autocross events, most with SCCA, the 914 was still competitive winning A/S in ’85, ’86, BS in ’98, ’01 and C/S in ’87, ’88, ’89, ’91, ’93, ’94, ’95, ’02 and ’03
