Many of you have dissed me for cutting up and converting my car, for the record, I like the stock look of the 914 and will have another one someday. I have wanted a Chalon since the first time I saw one back in the 80's. The car that I currently have that is converted to a Chalon was one of the biggest POS I have seen, there wasnt a spot on the car that wasnt dented or filled with bondo, the engine was a very tired 1.8 liter and the car was basically thrashed. There was no guilt cutting off the 40 pounds of bondo and replacing it with fiberglass flared panels. The V8 was just a choice of mass power to make the car as fast as it looked. I hope I can change your opinion of the Chalon with a V8 in it at some event someday. I was looking for reliability, power and uniqueness. I think I found it in the car I am building.
