I caught this article on The Drive about the recent Cars & Copters event in Southern California, and it features a one-of-a-kind custom that appears to me to be made out of a 914... the author speculated as much.
QUOTE a strange silver mid-engined car that I can only assume is a Porsche 914 or Ferrari bodykit of some sort. The full-size photo is at the bottom left corner below the article. Anybody know this car? |

I’m sure it looks great to a lot of people though doubt many true 914 people would even consider it. Not for me!

Perhaps it started as a 914 but I feel that the swept back takes it in a different direction.

Looks like plenty of options for an oil or water radiator. What's the power plant? Still a P Car?
