Purchased this very nice 914-6 conversion in Dallas a couple of months ago. Been enjoying it so did not have a chance to get it up in the air to look under it until I did the oil change last weekend.

Of course I am partial but it is almost a magazine quality car. I see that the prep for the paint on the wheelwells was not done well so the undercoat is coming off in the wheelwells. I will be cleaning off the rest of it this winter and will re-paint the wheelwells (no rust - amazing). I took a bunch of pictures and I noticed the quality is not that great (dirty lense). Beautiful car and it runs as good as it looks. The guy that put the car together has a nice collection of cars and races a 914-6 in the CVRA. I was lucky to hear about the car as it was not being advertised so I was just in the right place at the right time. Rare for me...

I like you taste in cars!
I've got to add vinyl to mine, then we'll be twins.

Was just out for a nice drive, not a bad day at all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
