Thanks for the live action detailed tour, George! Much easier than half-explained descriptions and somewhat confusing images in some manuals. 1974 914 2.0 LE Can Am Creamsicle "Valentine" LUFTBRIGADE Vintage Air-Cooled Porsche + Volkswagen Enthusiast Gruppe Jacksonville, Florida
I just bought a '76 2.0 last week. It was a "barn find". It has been storage as a weekend driver for 10 years and then stored for an additional 15 years. All it has is surface rust on the body. The common places for rust on my 914 are don't exist. :) I don't know if the engine runs yet because the previous owner removed the transmission to replace the clutch and never finished the job. I understand that the engine can't be started without the transmission because the starter mounts to the back of the transmission. Wish me luck on my new project!
@@dewder74 yes sir I am 15. I don’t know jack shit about cars and I’m looking for people that might have had similar problems that I am having. Is there any other way I could contact you?

A great and informative video. Thank you! I only wish it was for the 1973 2.0 liter car!

Sounds good! What ser # do you have? Mine was made in November, very last ones was Dec '75. Very low production in 76,
Hey man I’m 15 and just got one of these. How did yours go? Looking to learn a bit about what the hell im doing
@@gtbarnes11 Mine is mid production, October.
@@boilingmadness4261 Still working on it. Since I don't need the car for daily driving, I work on it whenever I feel like it. You're 15 years old?
