Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the different aspects that contributed to the development of Northeast American sports car racing during the 1950s. The evolution from amateur drivers racing on public roads in 1950, to both professional and amateur drivers racing at private, purpose-built tracks in 1959, demanded huge leaps of faith, trust and understanding. The transition was neither easy nor uneventful for drivers, clubs or track owners, and the tragedy, politics and intrigue that came to characterise the period are covered here in fascinating detail.

Download or read book Porsche 914 914 6 written by Roy Smith and published by Veloce Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Launched in 1969, the 914 series went through many problems and changes before production came to an end in 1976. It was constantly improved during its short life, but time just ran out for the model. It is interesting to note that until the Boxster made its debut, it remained Porsche's only mid-engined production car, although the company's racing models had been built with this layout for some years. The 914 also had a fine competition history - something that is often overlooked or run down because it wasn't as brilliant as that of the 911. By normal standards, however, it was indeed a fine history. There were also a large number of specials built on the 914 chassis, and both of these aspects have been covered in detail. The 914 series has often been cited as the forgotten Porsche, but there is a growing band of enthusiasts who only have eyes for this model. The handling is of course a major factor contributing towards the enjoyment of the type, but many people like the styling, and the fact that for so many years this was the most affordable of all Porsches to own and run. Now times have changed and the model has appreciated, not only in value, but in terms of awareness as well. The 914-6 has become particularly desirable, and it is hoped that this book will go some way towards explaining the 914's various merits.
Download or read book Porsche 914 4 914 6 1970 1976 Workshop Manual written by Floyd Clymer and published by Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated. This book was released on 2023-05-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 312 pages and more than 600 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. When the new Porsche 914 was announced in 1969 (as a 1970 Model), Floyd Clymer had already published a number of Porsche and VW manuals. Those publications included manuals for the Porsche 356 and 912, the VW Beetle, the 1500cc/1600cc Square-back/Hatch-back and the Transporter/Bus. Consequently, it was no surprise that Floyd would begin preparation of a 914 shop manual. Floyd was able to complete the Porsche 914 manual in record time, mainly because he was able to re-use most all of the 'mechanical' pages from his previously published Porsche and VW manuals. The only entirely 'new' section that he had to prepare was a chapter for the body components as they were uniquely different from any previous Porsche or VW model. Unfortunately, due to his untimely passing in early 1970 the 914 manual, although complete, remained unpublished and obviously, it only covered the early 914/4 1.7 liter and the 914/6 2.0 liter engines. We have taken that original manual and updated the information to cover the later 4 cylinder 1.8 liter and 2.0 liter models through 1976. While much of the general data is shared between both the 4 and 6 cylinder 914 variants, owners of the 6-cylinder 914 model are encouraged to read any individual chapter in its entirety, as it may include information that is specific to the 6-cylinder version.
