I can't give an exact price but it was about $2,000 and they used their paint. Time was about 3 weeks, I'd guess a lot of hammering! It cost an extra $100 to paint the white circles on the doors as it took a guy about 2 hours to setup the masking and they are perfectly round! Ted got some vintage numbers to go on the car so it will definately look like it did in the 60's.

There was a donor roof from the SF Bay area. We looked and could not find the weld seams where it was grafted on. Did see the 912 and it was resting peacfully!

I got to see the underside of the roof before they sprayed it. I was impressed with the workmanship. I also saw the car and top the day after it arrived,. So having seen the before, during and after in person, I can't wait to see the POS 912 they are working on right now (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif) (j/k 912 owner)

Another satisfied LP customer, and my windshield fit perfectly.


Glad to see your car getting some love, Matt.

holy shit - $2000 bucks for all that.

makes me want to drive my hideous beast there and wait for it while the do their magic : )

We should send a truck load of 914 rollers down there to be welded up for all bad rust, stripped bare, bodyworked and painted - then find a place to store them while they get sold off.
