QUOTE(r_towle @ Jan 2 2013, 05:39 PM) Go there and make friends....seriously. Exactly what I was going to say. Between Chris and Ed, they have probably worked on more 914s than anywhere else within a thousand miles of you. They know these cars well, and they're usually pretty friendly guys. Figure out a direction for the project--cruiser, autocrosser, weekend twisty-road toy, concours restoration, hard-core racer, tribute car, show car, platform for a massive sound system, or ??? Figure out a budget. Realize that you'll blow the budget--but it's still good to have. Get the mechanical stuff sorted out before you go wild on appearance stuff. Get the basic chassis solid before you go to town on the mechanicals. --DD |
