Jim bought another parts car last week. I went out to his place on Sunday and checked it out. Nice find, he'll get a lot of good usable parts off of this car.

When this much care goes into taking these cars apart and repairing any prior issues I would have no concerns about this cars value. This car will leave the shop in better shape than it left the factory. Straighter and truer for sure. Excellent job guys.

I'm not driving my /4 anywhere near that shop, it may never make it out alive.

Those darn /6 cars are cannibals.

So far, in regards to this restoration, some 914's gave some and two 914's gave all. As opposed to doing a VIN switch, we are in essence building a 914 around a VIN number. As such, the restoration checklist goes something like this; refinance the house, check, spend the kid's education money, check, hide large amounts of money from the wife, check and check. It appears we have a go!

I'm surprised the new rear inner suspension pick-up is not drilled .
With all this unbelievable work you don't even get that as a given reference.
But I have no doubts.
Great work !
