Hello fellow 914'ers
I was wondering if I could get some input on weither or not I should keep my windshield. I bought a $1000 914 and am currently stripping it to be a "street legal weekend track car" As of now I have stripped EVERYTHING (most of it for sale) out of the car and am getting it ready for paint. My son thinks it is a great idea to take the roof/side windows and windshield off to "save weight", save money by selling them and it means less masking and painting when it comes time to do that. Personally I am worried that it wont be street legal (even though my son insists that if we put a "bubble" screen it will be. And that I dont want to be caught out in the rain (even though I wont be driving this much except to the track, at the track and back... and maybe on a nice sunny summer day) Any input? |
