I built the lightest 914 in the history of mankind.  Group: Members Posts: 123,754 Joined: 3-February 03 From: Jacksonville, FL Member No.: 222 Region Association: None  |
Work is progressing at a snail's pace. I'm currently hanging the body work on the car. Making all the pieces line up is a PITA. I found that I have to get the hood set in it's final position than fit the fenders and doors to it. I'll expain as I go...
The first shot is the hood which is nearly completed showing the "hump" for the instament pod. This would have been easier if I had made the mold for the hump a little better. This took a lot of bondo and sanding to get to look right. Attached image(s)
