I have three cars I have built that I take to car shows pretty regulary. My 1970 Camaro has well over 25k into it and is just a beautiful car. My 1971 Chevy C-10 is nice but its a truck. A guy just has to have a truck. But...the Porsche powered by Chevy has always received looks and stares and is by far the most fun to drive.

The car is somehwhat of an outcast from the true Porsche guys and the muscle car guys, but today, the mechanics from Barry's Speed and Kustoms recognized the car for all that it is and all that it takes to get to that point. She won 1st place. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) Cheers

Wow...lots of questions. Okay...

CLOW: I dont really have a build thread. I posted many time regarding the cooling system and the guys here really helped me alot.

RICKS: Here are pics of the radiator, I used a 350Z grille.

IAN: With regard to sound deading, I used the standard sound deadening on the floor boards. I used nothing on the back fire wall. I did not really need to. The cabin is realtively quiet.

GANT: Here are pics of the Camaro and truck.

Here are pics of the Camaro and C10. I have tons more but dont want to move in that directions since this is a Porsche board.

Sweet (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) But I do think the 914 is the best looking one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

I have not really done too much. It is obviously 4 lug but I do have BMW calipers in the front.
