I went to the show at DD yesterday morning a little after 7 AM. On the way there I was making the right at Adams from Harbor and I see this really nice 57 Chevy being followed by a silver 914 with a large wing on the back. At the show, I was talking to some people and they asked me if I saw the silver V8 car that was there. So I am assuming it is a V8 914 with a big wing on the back and it's silver. Does anyone know who's it is? Is he a member here? Why did he leave the show so early?

Yup! The top one with the big a$$ wing on the back. I did not get to see the front so I missed if it was a slant nose but that looks like the car I saw.

Is he a member here? Jim, do you know him?

Not a member here Scott. Met him at Donut Derelects once. The two silver V-8 914's are frequently seen together...

Yeah, these two silver V8's were seen together at this one meet called "Crystal Cove" that's located in the parking lot of this one Ford Development center in Irvine. During the meet they wheeled out this new Shelby creation (IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0425.jpg)
(IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/PICT0429.jpg)

There were also a handful of other 914's there two 6's, here's a few pics of the 14's i saw there:
