Hey guys,

I thought I would share some finished photos of one of my latest projects. This one was for a customer. It's a 73 914 2.0 GT build. The color chosen was Signal Yellow. This is a custom color for a 914, but a standard early 911 color. The color scheme was inspired by the Sonoco car, albeit with a Guards Red stripe with black lettering. Somewhat inspired by the colors of the German flag as well. Anyway, I thought I would share.

Dang! that looks really good.

Signal yellow is one of those colors that really must be seen in person.
