Arkansas is a short hop from many states and this is really drivers country. Lots of tight turns, up and downs, and georgeous country.

According to my GPS I was doing about 97 when you went up one side and I took the other. I have a feeling we scared the crap out of him. At least you did. He knew I was there but you snuck up on him. I hope he pissed himself!

Who's is this and is there a built thread? Really like the smooth, painted sills & valance look and would like to read more..

That car belongs to Dennis and Linda Carter. They live in Missouri. Dennis had the car built by Wes Hildreth in Plano, Texas, and Richard Fisher did the paint and body work.
It won Best in Show at MUSR 10.
There is no build thread on here. This site didn't exist when it was built. Dennis is old school and has pictures in a photo album.

I have about 15 pictures of it I took while Richard was working on it.
Notice that the underside is pretty rough.

Congratulations Dennis It is one super, great looking example of what a 914 can be.
What is the origin and year of this 914? What was in it before the 2.4?
To all of you shooting the photos. Thanks for sharing the photos with everyone.
MikeCool
Edit.
Forgot to ask.
How did you get the engine and tranny color looking so good?
Posted by: dennisc Sep 25 2009, 02:30 PM
Thanks
It was a 1973 Texas car, no rust and straight, with a not running 1.7. Wes Hildreth in Plano has a cleaning pressure washer with some kind of solvent. I don't know what. Actually, the camera flash probably makes it look brighter than it really is.

I can ask him today, but I think I already know. it's a engine degreaser kinda like simple green... super-clean in a gallon purple jug
Wes has worked on porsches and VWs since the 60s... nicest guy you'd meet, and his shop is a great place to hang out and BS with all the local owners that stop in.

I like the original for tradition...Bah! TRadition! It's Raw Power and Great Looks I like! Great Car. Best of Show. Will your first competition be Clay when he get's his car running?? The Saga Continues.......

+1 for hanging out at Wes' shop. You never know who you'll see there (Mike, Wayne, Vince, etc). All you need is a tolerance for cigars.

speaking of which I need to find out what kind he smokes, I feel like I owe him a box for all the questions I've had, plus he's let me work on my car in his shop on his rack... not many people will let you do that... normally it'd be a case of beer or a bottle of good whiskey, but he doesn't drink

A huge container of pork rinds would do.

I was lucky enough to win the set of front brake calipers that Eric Shea donated for the MUSR Ramble. They came in the mail a couple days ago. Thanks Eric, they are so pretty I hate to put them on the car and get them dirty. I was suprised by the unique packing material you used
