hello everyone.
figured it would be best to start a new thread for the continuation of this project... http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;#entry1274393 i was introduced to this website after purchasing the car from eric clark in tucson. had originally intended to buy his rotisserie only, but made a package deal and now have 2 projects! the intent with this car is to gain some experience and enjoy a little 914 time before building a GT tribute (the other project). it has been interesting so far learning about the car and putting it back together. i've been involved with vw's and early porsche's for a while, but this is our first 914. i'll post pics of the progress as it goes, and i'm sure i'll have some questions too. so far this site has been a valuable resource and seems to have a great group of people contributing. looking forward to putting it all together, and actually driving the car!!  |

Did ES on Cave Creek paint your car? I saw it there when they were prepping it.

QUOTE(jasons @ Sep 12 2010, 10:54 AM)  Did ES on Cave Creek paint your car? I saw it there when they were prepping it. hey jasons. yeah, and they did a decent job for the price. unfortunately there were some crazing issues with the drivers door and they had to paint it multiple times. they also had a hard time matching the color. the previous owner had fixed all of the rust issues, did some chassis strengthening and primed it, but i did have them smooth a few areas on the body. the car is going to be a track car mostly, so didn't opt for a super fancy paint job. |
