"What are the things in life that make you feel good?

Mountains to climb? Water to play in?
Sun? Sand? Space?

Whatever they are, you'll find them more enjoyable in a Porsche 914.

It's as close as we could get to building a mountain goat."

Think we're joking? Well, we certainly are laughing. This is a 1973 Porsche 914 promotional brochure. The ad goes on to defend it's unexpected analogy, comparing specific 914 features to the attributes of a mountain goat such as:

• Electronic fuel injection to attain dizzying heights
• 4 wheel independent suspension to cover difficult terrain
• 5-speed gearbox to attack steep trails
• A lower center of gravity (due to the engine in the middle) for stability and handling
• 4 wheel disc brakes for superb braking on descents

Here at Transporter Werks, we prefer dogs to mountain goats. But we do love the 914. From giving your 914 engine upgrade modifications, to adding chassis stiffening kits so it can handle more power, we'll get your 914 ready for any adventure! Keep a look out, details of our current 914 restoration efforts will be posted soon.
