No affiliation, came across the dash photo and liked what he's built, sensible.
Found the ad just now, it all fits quite well.

The dash is interesting and executed well.

Nice, never saw that gauge set up, but with all those gauges I'm afraid I wouldn't watch the road

I dig it!!

I think the ad is a scam, weird email exchange, then nothing.

Sheridan is small farm town USA, chances are the guy at the desk might have a inkling of the 14's whereabouts, perhaps someone at the fire dept or pd.

Nice place to live, out on the land.
..The more I look at those flares, the more I appreciate how well done they are.
Reminiscent of the 914-8's fronts, with the dual headlamps, at the museum.

This is where I have seen the shapely flares before, a sort of conformist set of radii.

Very beautifully finished.

As the camera walks around, note the curvature of the trunklid's lip, the constant radius across the panel's width. Correct, perfect.
