He did a lot of bodywork on that 914. I wonder why he moved the engine to the front trunk?? MSG L

The are seval winners on eBay right now. Several with a/c and a couple of 914S's.

"The S designation was only used for a few 914-2.0's before Porsche pulled the plug and switched to the 914-2.0 designation"

914S? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

Where do these people get this stuff?

Trying to figure out what you guys find unusual about this car. I'm not getting it.

It's just a Sheridan widebody kit with a roll cage, kinesis wheels and a six. Most of us racing these cars have the same body kit or something similar. looks like a decent job. Nothing exceptional, but a decent job just the same.

I also had to go out and look at the box of fasteners I just got from Hawaiian Racing in Simi Valley. They are "Zeus fasteners" so again I'm missing it. What's so amusing about the spelling?

I am apparently not catching these. Somebody HELP!!!

You had to look several hours ago. They had the pictures switched with another auction for a 30's street rod.

You just missed it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Before the picture was changed, it showed a street rod.

Also, I have seen "DZUS" fasteners, but not "ZEUS" fasteners. Maybe that is like when they came out with "Duck" tape?

WHEW!!! THANK GOODNESS!!!

I feel better. Thought I was losing my mind.

I have very little left (Gas and oil fumes did me in) and can't afford to lose any more.

I thought I knew what dzus fasteners were; my Zeus fasteners are the same thing. Probably a different manufacturer and a trademarked name but not a patented product. I've also seen these labeled as 1/4 turn flat fasteners.
