Curious how much professional shops charge to completely blast interior & exterior and prime a gutted 914's body ...
... and where did you go? |

This one may give you a run for the money

That's an impressive amount of work and it looks like you had some good help. I think both our cars were in very bad "restorable" shape. Yours had more extensive issues in the front whereas mine was really bad in the middle-rear. Looking back, I'm just amazed I was able to take something like this:  And rebuild it into that:  Cheers, Fred |

Taking these rusting hulks and turning them around is half the fun. Probably 50 years ago I blasted a 356 speedster in a one car garage with silica sand, and live to talk about it. BTW: Great looking work, keep it up |
