Hey guys what going on!? I'm currently working on my first car, a 70' 914 2.0, so I thought I would join this site to get into the scene.

Tried going on another site, but I think it's dead, atleast the thread for 914's is.

The car was a Cali car that my Dad found on eBay (I'm 19) it was near Agoura Hills. Originally it was Canary Yellow, but I put a stop to that madness quite quickly and took it down to bare metal.

Give me a few more minutes, last week, my flares came in, and I just finished putting them on, I'll post those in a sec...

Oh, here's some others. The car had an AC unit that someone put in, so we took a floor from a 76 that was already cut in half and on it''s way to the yard, stitched welded it in, and sprayed rubberized undercoating throguhout the front.

Also, my flares before we put them on....

Looks Irish Green to me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)


You went a bit overboard with the coating ...

I'm sorry, I didn't specify. Yes, it was green originally, when I got it, it was Canary Yellow.......about 3 layers of canary yellow.

Also, I went heavy on the undercoating to um....hide the welds. Plus, I'm informed the Rubberized coating not only protects, but also acts well for noise dampening.

This is the car as of a few days ago. Last weekend, I took some reinforced doors and slapped them on, and they fit great, pictures of the to come later tonight.

Welcome!
I lived in San Diego for about 20 years...

You get extra points for knowing how to spell 'flare.'
