You should build in pivots on the entry and exit of the cage to make easier access.

Apologies for keeping this thread dormant for several months. We've been working on the car and also getting ready for Rennsport at the same time. No this car will not be attending =(. BUT Maltese Falcon's 914 - 6 GT Twin Turbo will be!

You can see some more updated pics in the "what did you do to your 914 today" thread for in meantime.

Will update this thread with more pics soon.

Thanks!

Matt

Total of 4 AeroLatch brackets in the rear trunk.
These small attachments are welded to the existing "Bumper stop adjuster" trunk lid plates....makes for a decent landing area for the latches.Attached Image

Dzus fastener 101. This was my first experience with these fasteners.
Pegasus Racing supplied the parts, some racing buddies and the Internet gave me the education. So the rear quarter panels provided the learning curve. I should be A+ by the time I reach the fiberglass front end !Attached Image
