Hey guys I saw this about a month ago at a local cars and coffee. The kid was a nice young man selling his 914-6 so that he could put his energies into his early 911. Does this price seem reasonable?

It's a lot of car for the money, HC, and better still after selling the 15x8s and flares.

I hear Larmo on the wrong color for a six thing, but it's a perfect excuse to do one of my hot-rod looks: "Invisibly" widened rear fenders with 16x7 and 16x8 Fuchs in factory 1980s finishes. This car would be stunning done that way, with 205s and 225s or 245s. I'd leave the black bumpers to go with the black wheel centers. Done.

Just my take.

None of these are quite as subtle/invisible as the rear flares I saw on a car that sadly burned to the ground back in the 1990s—or one wearing widened VW steelies around the same time—but you get the idea. Love the 16x9s, but maybe a bit extreme. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Also kind of like the idea of keeping this one's paint a bit more on the rough and ready side...would be a killer car for CA rallies and events.
