Wow, nice looking car, Barry!

Very nice. Red is one of those colors that looks "cluttered" with the sail panel vinyl installed... good job! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Nice car, even the engine looks pretty.
I did see a picture of a 914 put onto a tracker type frame for a 4x4 once. It actually looked better than the Cayanne. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I thought you were going for that 4x4 look we might see up here in Northern Ontario in the winter (October to May) |
