Answer to my own question

Drive-Ability's car

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=219539&hl=


Drive-Ability got if from somebody that posted allot on the Lateral-G forum surprised you didn't see it over there.


I'm on Lat-G everyday (more than here lol) I've never seen it there. I think this a super cool car. I may be able to pull it off, waiting for a Wire Transfer on my Twin-Plug Motor!

You don't want to buy it. You'll just end up selling it off in two years...

I've only had 59 Cars in 37 Years! and made money on all of them! lol

This car appeals to me because of where I am in life (dealing with Ls Customers everyday, having access to great fabricators & welders), my general disdain for new Porsches and wanting something super cool that could be made uber reliable!

Heck. I've got more in my engine than his asking price...for the right buyer, it is a good deal. There is ALLOT of work left to do - mucho dinero too! What is it? Some of the build appears to be "race car", others, not in the least? I think it has an identity crises, of sorts. My only real question is how the handling can be manipulated to accommodate a car weighing well over 800 lbs less than it was designed to handle (no pun intended).

Only Mike B can buy it....too many 914s leaving California (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Neat build, I'd like to pick his brain on the 996 suspension install.

So... who won?

I tried, and I also REALLY don't need another project, but the seller has replied to me with "Pending sale".

Not sure, but John sent me a message that he had a Deposit. I told him to let me know if it fell through as I put the funds together

Carr914 - I would put my money on it staying in (Northern) Cal. Silence is deafening...hmm? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Also, unless the seller is not into details (which otherwise doesn't appear to be the case) the engine is not an LS6 - its an LS1. They (LS6) were not made until 2001 and even if it is, the 2001 LS6's were plagued by ring issues - the worst of the LS6's. If true (as in a 2000), its just a $1500-$2500 LS1 (regardless of the heads) Its value if its a 2001 LS6 is $2500-$3000 tops. I added up the parts...they don't "add up" to the asking parts (FWIW) based on what I'm seeing.

Its actually sad. Another uncompleted project with grandiose aspirations...too bad. I can only hope the buyer truly knows what they're getting. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
