This blog follows the progress of restoring and converting a 1973 Porsche 914 from stock to full electric drive, with an electric motor and half a ton of batteries. Now that the car is done and in storage while I live overseas, I'm adding descriptions and pictures of each Tesla location I visit.

Racing 914 at Infineon Raceway
I was up at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California to finish up the solar power monitoring system on Thursday and Friday. Among the amazing exotic cars was this tricked out 914. The owner said he pulled the original engine and put in a 400+ HP Subaru WRX motor. It went in nicely because it's smaller than the original and weighs only 25lbs more. Enjoy.

This is also the car known as "Raggety Andy" from the PCA Germany region in the 80s. Nice to see the car still gets a smile.
