I know OLD thread, but since I haven't had any luck finding out what happen to these "trucks" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) and we have a few more new members, I thought I would bring this up again.
So anyone know what happen to them??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Nice revival of an old thread. Somebody said subaru brat, I'm thinking more in the family like the VW Rabbit pickup.

I will prolly get flamed for this but (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) I like it better than the shape of the 914s rear and if it had a hard cover it would look even better. To me porsche drop the ball on rear I recal someone else on this board said the 914 looks like a ducks ass from the rear. I agree

The pickup doesn't get my vote either. I like the lines of a 914, so the most I do to them is put the GT flares on them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

Whats wrong with FMB's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Other than that the car should be shot and buried in a quiet sunset ceremony with a bugle playing softly in the distance.

A quick Google search gave me this LINK No Idea how old it is, but I'd phone them (Aase Bro) and see if they have any ideas where those cars are now. (714) 956-2419

Nice boots...I guess the appeal of the truck is more with a swamp background? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

(714) 956-2419 Called last year and no one knew what I was talking about. Just called again and was told they sold their car,err truck... whatever to Bill Jackson in Colorado. As far as they know Troutman still has the /6. Anyone know a Bill Jackson in Colorado (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Anyone here know Troutman? I just want to know if they are displayed anywhere or heck maybe even for sale. I guess I am one of the few that actually likes it. |
