[914-8]

One of the things I like about V8 conversions is that everyone that does one has a different interpretation of what a V8 914 should look like. For example, some like to do things that highlight that the car is watercooled (like this silver one), others like to disguise it.

And there lots of different ideas of how to handle the various re-engineering that is necessary. You rarely see 2 V8 cars that are even remotely alike.

This silver one looks like it has had some nice work done on it. But definitely not my cup of tea. Copper plumbing is nice in a house, but just wrong on a car. And styling is subjective and opinion, but almost none of the choices on that car is one that I would have made (hood, multiple oversized openings in the bumper, unnecessary venting of the engine lid, the big fender vents which are useless in an watercooled car, the fake 911 door panels, etc. But the car was his vision of how a V8 should look, not mine!

Will be interesting to see where it ends up.

I'm not really a Chalon lover, but... I thought this was a really nice V8 car that sold last week.
