914 in Carbon Fiber, Its a street car too! Options

[Jake Raby]

Yep...
Just took on the engine job tonight!

Its a 2615cc EFI Turbo using my new heads and a set of Nickies and no budget!

Lookin for 400 ponies....

The entire car weighs 1300 pounds and is based on a full tube chassis, all covered with correct 914 body panels in Carbon Fiber/Kevlar with a Black and Yellow weave.... the suspension is also amazing and looks like an ALMS car with massive ducting and incredible brakes.

The guuy is a composites engineer and has made all the panels himself.

To answer your question- He won't sell other parts or make them! I already tried that one with him!

He also won't allow me to post the pics, but man is it amazing looking. He is building the car for someones collection, but he won't tell me who........

Wild stuff! Lookin for 400 ponies! This one will bring some developments to light that no one else has been willing to pony up the bucks for!

The engine is underway for this car... BUT the customer definately wants to use my heads and thats still going to be a bit before I use them on a customer's engine..

I have only been following the customers directives on not spilling the beans on the car or who's it is or what it will look like- I respect his request. I don't know why he wants it this waym because one reason why we build crazy things is to blow other's minds- can't do that if they never see it.

While some customers are like this (very few) most are like "The Mighty Spyder" and love to share pics. Those are the guys that I benefit from because their project is not just fun, but realy good for business- so I cut them a deal.

The 914 project has slowed a ton since I posted this originally. In the beginning he was all into it, now I only hear from him once every two months- must be on jackstands somewhere!
