Dad gets Surprised by Porsche 914

Backstory From the girl who bought her Dad the Porsche he always wanted to finish: “my stepdad is awesome. My first memories of him are playing barbies with me and reading to me. He coached every softball team I was on and came to every Karate tournament. He never had to do any of that. He gave up this awesome car to spend the money on marrying my mom. I saved up some money from my deployment and have been trying to figure out for a few years how to deliver back to him the same car. In the end I just waited until I found and identical one in great condition and went to get it. I’m just happy I could do something nice for a guy who has always done absolutely anything he could for me.”

As car guys we understand how important a single car can be to us in our memories and the joy on this dads face proves that cars are not just transportation vehicles they are parts of our lives.

The Porsche 914 or VW-Porsche 914 was a mid-engined, targa-topped two-seat roadster designed, manufactured and marketed collaboratively by Volkswagen and Porsche from 1969 to 1976. A fun fact about the Porsche 914 – In 1974, Porsche produced a series of Limited Edition cars for the North American market to commemorate Porsche’s victories in the Can Am racing series, and were equipped with unique color schemes and came standard with otherwise optional equipment. The factory is said to have produced about 1,000 of these vehicles, about 50% Bumblebee and 50% Creamsicle. Variants of this series were manufactured and distributed in very limited numbers to European markets and Japan.
