Sharp looking car. I sure wouldn't feel safe driving a car with a rollbar like that though - it would fold right over if the car rolled.

I believe that’s a repainted and updated version of this car they built 18 or so years ago. I remember following the original build here: http://www.gunnarracing.com/project/914spyder/914-0515.htm

I have actually met Kevin and Gunnar.
I didn't have any idea what they were up to and it was a few years before 914's in my life.

It has rear diagonal support bars, it would be fine

I would want as least some semblance of a windshield bubble to keep the bugs off my faceshield! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) That's a really clean looking build.

On a recent trip to Fla. I dropped in at Gunnar.
Saw the tail of this 914 and a few other very interesting race cars, a 917, a 962, 935....and a Beetle getting a full restoration !
The shop was full and busy preparing for Daytona.
Not the best time to visit. Did not ask to take pics.
Hope to visit again at a more relaxed time.

Yeah, I like the car too but i have a question about the driver names. Derek and Justin Bell I recognize and Bob Holbert too but I wondered does anyone know if "Emory" is Gary or Rod?

Great color scheme but the front to rear stripe at the top of the fenders is too flat in the middle and fails to follow the distinctive curve that is such a subtle feature of our cars.
A beautiful car.
