Slightly OT: 914 and 911 content, The race cars are safe at home! Options

I brought home The Beast and our new 911 track car "Felix - The Cat's Meow". I just look at The Beast and I can't wait till next year when she's painted and assembled. Then we have to decide to sell her or stuff a motor in her.

The 911 is in pretty good shape. It is LOUD! The previous owner is running chrome tips off of the headers.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) The car itself was put together pretty nicely. Front end body work and all rear quarters and butt end are fiberglass GT racing panels. The G50 shifts like it was new. All plastic windows except for the windshield. The interior needs work, so that will be the winter project, getting the interior painted and detailed. And my 16" Diamond Racing Wheels fit over the monster 4 pot calipers already on the car. I don't have to worry about swapping them out.

About the only things wrong other than the interior cosmetics is that there is a small crack in the front windshield and the left rear wheel bearing is TOAST.

On next Monday, the tweaking begins. I am thoroughly happy about my purchase.

Here's a few pics of the toys....

Of course, The Beast goes first....
