Thanks guys for the votes and the compliments... I'm flattered, keep 'em coming! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hands.gif)

Some of you asked for more photos, here are a few...

By way of background: it's thanks to the forum that I have the car: In 2015 I bought it from a 914world member in Texas, and imported it to the UK.

When it arrived in London it was a very tidy, narrow body 914/6 rep in Light Ivory:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237100.1.jpg)


But soon after I set to work to make it into my fantasy GT, for use on track and for tours to European historic race events:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237102.2.jpg)


Although I like to keep it shiny and clean...:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237102.3.jpg)


...I jump at every opportunity to use it in anger:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237103.4.jpg)


Cars are to be enjoyed, and I don't mind letting friends drive mine...

Here's my good pal Stephen (Defianty) about to drive off without me:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237103.5.jpg)


He is part way through a tip top GT build, and has a thread here on the forum about the project:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237104.6.jpg)


Richard Attwood, famous F1 and sportscar driver, and winner of Le Mans 1970 in a 917, taught me the way around Silverstone in the car:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237104.7.jpg)


Even my dear old grandmother (89 years young) was behind the wheel recently:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237105.8.jpg)


In the cabin it's safe, snug, and purposeful:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237105.9.jpg)


While outside the growl is not exactly "family friendly", now that I've recently fitted a new muffler:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237106.10.jpg)


I make sure it's well looked after, and gets to hang out with other Porsches old:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237106.11.jpg)


...And new (not to mention big!):

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237107.12.jpg)


...And whenever possible I like to take it on tours with its sister car, my 2.7RS rep:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237107.13.jpg)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-19057-1549237108.14.jpg)


But of course the best part is keeping the car on the button, for when this guy's feet can reach the pedals!

Voted! It’s the least I could do to return the vote favor to a fellow World member. This group helped vote my 76 teener to a lopsided win in 2002 for the Modesto Bee’s COTY award. I didn’t even know about everyone’s help until years later when I was reading old posts one late night Ty all again... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
