Never seen it. I'm not really into body conversions but I like that one! aktion035.gif

This looks more like it was build on a Boxster, not a 914 ...

Very elegant lines. Wonder why its so long in the tail; aerodynamics, design element, or functionality?

I think they're going for a later-day Jaguar XK-13?

It looks like a variation on the Jaguar X12 (not sure about the model) that was a racing exercise at the end of the XKE series... I've seen pics of it but can't nail it down right now. Nice lines!

Looks like maybe a 6 with some stacks sans aircleaner in the back window

I've got some other pictures of it at home and who it was built by (West Coast USA). Definately built on a 914.

That Picture that Wolfgang posted came out of an issue of Panomera (probably 8-10 years ago)

I used to get a lot of glass from Mark. That kinda confirmed my Getty link suspicion. Mark would occasionally have various bits for sale in the back of Pano as a private sale in Pano. They were really good quality. I got all my RS pieces from him and the hoods for my 914 from him.
