Here are some pics of a 914 model I have. I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the original kit, so I make a few modifications...

Here is a photo of my "race team". I built this in about 1979. I was ready to go IMSA GTU racing with it. Revell 911 and AMT Chevy van and race trailer.

Man that was a long time ago...

No, That was a picture I took just before putting the Chalon inside the garage. It currently has the suspension off for the 911 swap out. You saw it the other day, it hasnt changed any. The yellow one is down off the jackstands and actually runs. I just need to dial everything in before I drive it much.

Front bumper: Made out of plastic and balsa wood. I just droped the original chrome bumper down a bit, and made a 911 style bumper out of balsa wood.
