$150.00 per shock plus parts. I was roughly quoted about $50.00 each in parts.

TrueChoice did the restoration and Phil there has yet to send the invoice. I'm guessing around $450.00 shipped for those.

I'll probably have a little over $1,000 into them all-tolled with cash, horse trading, old shocks and the restoration.

These were supposedly the shocks on the factory 914-6GTs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


Eric those look great (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

Yes they are the right shock for some Factory GTs

Some GT's came with and raced with Bilsteins

We'll see about that... having them priced at $2k and selling them at $2k are two different things. Maybe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
