POLL CLOSED! CONGRATS MARVS3.6

Welcome to the Nov/Dec 2016 COTM (Car Of The Month) poll. Please vote for for your favorite car!


Each contestant will be encouraged to post one picture as well as a description of your car. I will put that in the top post for the members to vote. If no information or picture is provided I will put their name and find a picture of their car.

Each contestant is then encouraged to post as much as they want within this thread to support their car, or they may link to their own threads.

Voters... Remember this is not a popularity contest, this is about which car is your favorite build, which means the most to you, which you find the most impressive, which you simply like the most.

The winner will then be required to provide 3 pictures of their car that will be used on the home page and a 25 word description of their car, and their car will be on display on the home page until the next car is appointed! This is due by one week after poll closes to avoid delays and allow Andy enough time to edit the home page for the next month.

I have been a 914-6 fan since I first saw one in 1970. The car literally turned my head around, my first view of the 914 was thru the showroom window. I happened to live around the corner from the famous Vasek Polak Porsche dealership. Peering thru the window and seeing the brand new model 914 sitting on the showroom…. side by side with a 908 race car. The two cars were quite similar, mid engine, wheels way out on the corners. I knew at that point the 914 was a very special car. But 914-6 cars were well beyond affordability at the time. I had lusted over the 914-6 for decades and finally was able to afford one in 2002.

This car here is my dream car and I plan to own her forever. My goal was to build a TTOD Autocross car but it turned into my version of a Porsche factory 914-6 hot rod. It took 8 long years to build. This car is no frills and all business is very loud and lightning quick. There are many subtle detailed touches on the car that are the result of my ADD brain endlessly engineering and re-engineering ideas over and over in my head.
