Actually, I think that your vision was distorted by the case of pink eye you had then. I am actually that short. I drive a 914 with the seat slid all the way forward. |

That is a sweet looking ride. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif) Love the look of those flares. Everything seems to flow nicely into eachother (flares, rocker panels and bumpers) More pics would be nice. Cheers, and good luck with it, Dominic.

It will be at the MUSR this year. I am currently getting a drink inside, but we have the gas tank paint drying right now.
I am working on installing a speedo cable. I have to temporarily use a standard 914 speedo instead of the electronic 911 speedo. For some reason, it does not work, and I don't have time to troubleshoot it. Got a whole list of things to do to the car, and only a month to get them done. But it will be at MUSR. Oh, and miles, I painted the fire bottle to match the car. More detailed pictures later this week. |
