Here's what it looked like recently Attached thumbnail(s) |

so who owns/built the GT? are they a member here? that's got to be one of the, if not the, best 914's I've ever seen.

btw. the shock towers should be painted black to get that authentic "GT/914-6" look ...

Remember that this is not a reproduction, it's a real GT with history. The yellow (if it's there) is probably zinc chromate primer. That car is truly perfect.

Hey William, thanks for the GT shots , it's always nice to see special 914's. By the way, what was that , yellow globe in the sky? In your part of the frozen tundra, we know you never see the sun. LOL

Looks great William !!. But.. all 914's look great when going back together from a rotisserie rebuild.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) It will be ultra dirty the first time he spins it at a vintage event... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
I started to say: everything looked correct... but I realized who's car it was that it was an orginal GT. The only thing that stands out that I had NO info on was the stregthened top. I have never even seen one. B |
