Hey guys, I just wanted to share this beautiful 914 I stumbled across today. Nice photos and great Laguna video. Love the Mexico Blue. (No affiliation - obviously, look at me) Have a great weekend! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Thx for posting. Not a million miles way from my build, with the exception of THAT motor and - judging by the Laguna Seca video - some well selected ratios in the transmission. Be interesting to see what it fetches.

QUOTE 914-6 GT tribute in the early-2000s for use in vintage racing. 20 yr old vintage racer, nice and clean.HMSA....boxster cal. upgrade [quote]@joshuafklassen84 it a race car. I’m sure you could make it street legal, but it won’t be much fun. Very fast revving, tight ratios and power all comes on at high rpm. My suggestion would be leave it on the track.[code] Café Racer |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) It probably means that the current owner doesn't want to deal with the hassle of selling his car so he has hired a broker to do it for him. |

BaT is Bring A Trailer....an auction website for anything that moves. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, airplanes, etc.
If you've never been on the site to look at what's up for auction, you're missing some really cool items. Time to emerge from hibernation.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) And yes, there are 3rd parties selling things on BaT for their clients. Happens all the time. It's a little like selling something on consignment...except it's an auction. If you sell something on consignment, that's nothing but 3rd party. |

^^ because Race Car They spent a lot money on this build. The extra thousand in the material cost of metal fenders seems like a weird way to cut costs, since it devalues the final product significantly HMSA is not a fender banging club I’ve raced with them but rules are dif..and steel flairs were not that plentiful as they are now,, 2003 factory flares $2500, AA still not supplying $950 In 1994 I needed a left front GT fender $400 from the dealer |

The shop where I used to work sells most ofl their medium and high end cars on BAT. The site is not limited to consumers. |
