I built the lightest 914 in the history of mankind.  Group: Members Posts: 120,304 Joined: 3-February 03 From: Jacksonville, FL Member No.: 222 Region Association: None  |
I've been working to get the front half of the bodywork ready for painting. I decided to f/glass the driver's door and left front fender together. It would have been way too much work to make the door hinged. I did leave the rocker panel seperate on the drive's side. The passenger side has the door/fender/rocker all one piece. I also made the driver's door wrap around to meet the hood. Than I made a cover over the passenger side. This piece was alot of work. It mounts on the car sperate from the hood and door. I know it looks like I should be running on a dry lake somewhere.
I've been thinking of making the back end (fenders/trunk lid/targa bar) one piece and have it hinged and pivot up over the roll bar. Kinda like the 917s did. That would be a LOT of work. Give me some feedback. Paul Attached image(s)
