Hi,
Thought I'd drop in as I'm a long time Porsche fanatic. My first being a 73 914 2.0l I had in High School. I really fell in love with the cars after owning that car, that led me to a 912 later that was way too rusty, but after spending about 2x what I paid for the car got it restored.
I actually got a 944 from a friend very cheap, and later a 951 ( I know water pumpers), I enjoyed for quite some time, intil it burst into flames ( actaully a leak on the fuel rail).

I eventually got back into 914s as it was really my first love and just recently got a 76 912E in very good shape.

That's my story

Well from some of the shirts I've made it might be a little misunderstood

Here's a picture of Drew wearing one. I actually made them in pink as a few of the ladies wanted some.

Welcome to DDK Mark.

Very much appreciated that you have taken it upon yourself to re-produce some 914 rubber parts as well as other parts. :salute:
Keep up the good work.
