914World.com _ 914World Garage _ my winter project lives

Posted by: dyckster Feb 24 2017, 06:17 PM

I'm not a real internet person, but I thought I would share the first photos of my latest winter project.
This was my first try at a Porsche, its a 71 Chalon. I have mostly vw stuff. I changed a few things, like its a 350 chevy with a boxster5speed. Fitech fuel injection, hydraulic clutch, and a few other things. I got a lot of information from this site, as well as parts from vendors here too. Thanks all
This was the first day out of the shop, off to the glass shop.

Leave the windshield out and you can still call it air cooled

Windshields are overrated. Let the wind blow through your hair and bugs in your teeth. Now that's living!

The windshield is a seriously easy DIY. Always blows me away that a guy who would do all the other work you've done, would farm a windshield out.

Seriously good looking and probably scary fast though!
