Why are there whole threads without any information at all? I thought the point of boards like this was actual communication.

Can't say who it is yet, until possession of the car takes place, which is soon.

Stand by. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I just saw the car. New owner should be posting a picture tonight.

This car has some nice grunt and with some minimal dieting will be quick at all events.

Ok...so Doris and I are not new...but we are old... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I've been busy in racing Spec Boxster and will continue to do so but Doris will be returning to the track for Time Trials and we will both be competing in AX again next year, so the answer was obvious....we needed another race car.

1971 tub, 3.2 Carrera motor rebuilt with cams and a Steve Wong chip and other goodies. 231HP at the wheels. All Patrick Motorsports Conversion bits, comes with a 901 in the car and a good 915 box just waiting for some WEVO parts.

Tarett Engineering Anti Roll bar up front and other nice features.

First up is a diet to get weight down. I will weigh her tomorrow on my scales after I align the Spec Boxster.

The plan is to evolve this car into a nice lightweight GT3 car. I will post as we go along.

Doris and Bill P.

Oh...here she is!

The passenger seat for this car is on a short loan to me for this coming weekend's LeMons race...

I still have 2 "BPR Racing" magnets on my 914 that I got from Randall after loaning jack stands/tools to him at an AX a few years back.

Nice 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
