Any original 914-6 is worth saving, especially a 1972! What a rare find and great progress!

Great to see an update. Nice progress.
I’m intrigued by that splittie on the rotisserie behind the 914. Would love to see a few more angles.

after all this work it was impossible for me to keep firewall in this condition. unfortunately, it is impossible to import second-hand parts into my country.

I had time to have the right tool

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.servimg.com-25113-1640720536.1.jpg)

I decided to recreate it.

happy new year mate. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

we had to chop up the firewall of my 914 30 years ago to convert to RHD.
but nothing like that.
incredible.

i did a search on your workshop, came up with a facebook page.
quite an operation you run.
