It is peculiar, as if they went to great lengths for accuracy for some things, and juat said- "aw, whatever" for other parts. The scales are what weird me out. Look at those radio knodb. But then look at the heating controls- amazing- IDK.

Don't get me wrong, I love 914's, but if I was going to spend 5000 building a model of a car, it wouldn't be a 914. He probably could have built a real one for the same amount of effort. Or better yet, he coulda just bought one - they aren't that expensive.

Sure it's real. The passenger side hinge pivot is rusted through (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) .
