1974 Porsche 914 LE "Bumblebee"

Nicknamed a Bumblebee limited edition , 1000 LE cars were produced, 500 Bees and 500 Creamcycle editions in 1974 only.  Less than 200 have survived.  This "Bee" was recently recommissioned as a Safari 914.

Purchased in 1981 this was my daily driver for a decade.  Only car we owned so it took us from Florida to Pennsylvania each year, 2000 miles round trip

The Bee was then converted to a race car initially for auto-cross then transitioning to run at PCA, HSR and SVRA events.  We were able to be a class Champion in 1996 with several race wins over the years and the Class Championship at Brian Redmond’s Double 50 at Watkins Glen International. ( a weekend where the Porsche factory brought numerous cars and dignitaries ). The last race the car ran was at VIR and finished 1st overall.

Over the next decade we have made the car street legal again but keeping many if not most of the racing modifications.  While never finished the car debuted at our regions show in Brevard 2019

In almost 40 years of ownership this 914 is a key part of our family and lifestyle
Our son keeps the car in his garage, and like our daughter, looks forward to the day he owns this special Bee and she owns the other 914, Frog

The Air Brigade Story

The Air Brigade started as friends who owned air-cooled Porsches gathering to drive their cars on the great roads of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Too many air-cooled Porsches now spend their days in a garage with a quick drive in the neighborhood. Air Brigade provides a way to drive and socialize with other air-cooled Porsche owners.

Driving an air-cooled Porsche is a totally different experience that only other owners will understand and enjoy. It is a special breed of driver who enjoys the rawness of an air-cooled Porsche.

Air Brigade now provides you the forum to meet and drive with like-minded owners of air-cooled Porsches. There is a registry of owners and an exclusive driving meet-up function so you can meet and drive with owners in your area. A forum provides a means to talk and discuss the unique aspects of your car. Regular driving tours and shows will be scheduled for owners of an air-cooled Porsche 911, Porsche 356 and Porsche 914.
