I know that it my fault for getting Kent hooked on 914's, he first painted my 72 and then all the metal work and awesome paint on the six. I posted a few pics of his V8 conversion in my thread but here's where he's at and its almost ready for paint.
Maybe we can get him to start posting what he's done on it up to now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |

Looks good. I'm digging the flares I think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) . It's a little hard to see the definition of them in the primer. Im sure it will look kick ass

Neat.
That looks like plenty of room for modern "shallow" drivers. For example: http://www.jlaudio.com/car-audio-stealthbo...a-crewmax-07-up -Steve |

+1. Are those little projector beams going to be enough to light up the road or do you have plans for additional lighting? |

I will have additional lighing in the bumper but these should be sufficient to light the way and keep the cops from hassling me for the headlights being to low.

That looks fantastic!
Did he mock the firewall to valve cover up? Typically you have to hit it a bit in on the drivers side to give it a bit of clearance for taller valve covers. |

Very nice,shapely curves.Definitely some thought went into how the the flare blends with the spline of the longitudinal blinker>taillight curve. |
