914World.com _ 914World Garage _ About the car of the month

Posted by: daytona Mar 26 2020, 06:00 PM

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, so feel free to move it where it belongs.
I would like to make a suggestion regarding the car of the month on the home page. Along with the brief description of the car's specs, would it be possible to to include a link to a build thread where one can see some more detail photos and learn more about the build?
I have seen several very interesting and inspiring cars, Like the one chosen this month, being celebrated as the car of the month, that I would like to learn more about. Maybe others feel the same way.
Bill.

Yes ! I'm particularly interested in the wheels on Dave's 914. Not seen these before...
anyone know what they are ?

I don't believe Dave has a single build thread. When I search his name, his car build is spread over many different threads. He was sort of stealth until the finished product.

Edit- I did find his paint and assembly thread. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=291040&hl=

Thank you mepstein and 71six for posting the links with info on the car. This is precisely the kind of link I think could/should be included on the home page.

I'm hoping Dave will chime in with some of the small custom details that he did to the car. It's not a run of the mill GT build.
