So my main 914 project is still in a state of limbo........................................................ I am not even sure what color it was......
I saw a 914-6GT project on the rotisserie the other day that has really got me to thinking. Maybe I will start another project and go the six or rat4 flared GT route. I'm tired of not having a running 914. So vendors, half finished project hawkers, finished car sellers beware. I am beginning to believe that I can do this car right. I don't think that I care about historical accuracy to an extreme degree, but they did so many things right with these cars it is sensible to stick close to the plan. Wish me luck.

Yeah, it's all about the chassis. We were talking at the V8 Hooters afterparty about how you only get one chance to do the chassis right. Everything else bolts on from there. If you skimp on the chassis, it's a major PITA to strip everything back down. I'd love to be able to sell fully prepped chassis painted to someone's specs, but the speculative $ of getting started is a little far out for me. |
