The primary reason it's not rolling around right now is that the left rear mag wheel won't hold air. The car originally had the 2.0 normally aspirated engine. It was being tweaked for slaloms when the owner located a 914 shell that was nearly slalom ready. He swapped engines, so mine has a 1.8L fuel injected engine instead. All the work on the suspension remains. It has a Bursch exhaust system with stainless steel heat exchangers, new disk brakes (rotors and calipers), a 911 master cylinder and a new clutch/flywheel. Lots of life left in it. It's not as pretty as your Ferrari, but it will plaster you to the door in a turn. Very sure footed.

Despite the rivalry between the brands I’ve always wanted one. Love the Porsche look and feel.
I do most of the work on the TR myself, at the hanger.
Don’t give it away without letting me know. :)
