Hi all. I've been a member a while though not the most active one.
I'm doing a frame-off restoration on a 76 and I've been on the fence for a while now about whether or not to keep what I think was a sales floor add on to the car. The project car had side trim on it when I bought it and it looks like it's been there since day one. Would you keep it or not? Here is a pic of the type of trim I'm talking about. The car isn't a 914 obviously but the trim is very similar. Thanks (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.customautotrim.com-9787-1430373919.1.jpg) |

Thanks for all the input.
My gut is to remove them as I've never seen them on another 914. Also, the pic I posted is just an example of what the trim looks like and not of the 914. I realize there may have been some confusion there. I'll post some progress picks when I can. The motor is out of the 914 and completely disassembled. One piston skirt was broken and it motor really needs some love. Thanks again |

My opinion is lose the trim, modify your avatar to show you driving the 914 in traffic dressed like that. Try to get some passerbys reaction....
