From the pics it looks like the work done is pretty clean. Why they did that could be a long thread.
Yes, I want a far inferior front suspension to be grafted to a 914, sort of. There's a new Mad Max movie in the works... |

There isn't much 914 left there. Is there any 914 left? It looks like a beetle tub converted to mid-engine.
To be honest, it does not bother me. I place it in the same category as beetle based dune buggies. They can be really cool for what they are. Zach |

So many people around here love the "Anklebiter" which really isn't that far off from something like this. No point in calling this a "914", there's nothing 914 about it except for maybe a piece of the floorboard.

besides the fact that this is one of the ugliest conversions of a 914 I've ever seen,
the buyer has not the slightest chance to get this thing street legal in germany. It will be a trailer queen forever .. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) .. br Benno |

I don't really see any 914 in it and as the description says "unfortunately, the body is missing"
