I have a disease…..
Project mania…lol
Love to build stuff and can’t say no when I see something in my reach. I have some of them done, but most are still works in progress.
1) my daily driver, she is my true love. 15 years of daily driver flawless service! 2004 4Runner.
2) My first car from 1986 that I still have. Building it for my now 17 years old daughter. It’s a 74 Sun Super Bettle. Has 2110 turbo, 220 hp on water dyno
3) 1979 911sc Max Moritz German born import. Finished painting about a year ago, but this is how she still sits.
4) 1969 beetle with 2.5L turbo STI forged stuffed into it. Crazy amount of fab work. Done with everything but body and paint.
5) 1998 C5 naturally aspirated 470rwhp on the dyno….so much fun!
6) 1972 CJ5 lifted on 39.5’s with hydraulic assisted steering and 4 wheel disk brakes. First V8 that Jeep made AMC 304.
7) My daughters go kart
8) Dads go kart with forged internals of course..lol
9) 2006 Buell 1250 scg
10) 2006 Screamin’ Eagle V-rod
11-12) YSR 50 and the yellow one is a YSR with a IT 175 2 stroke 6 speed with custom frame and reinforced swing arm. Clocked at 87 mph in a 25 speed limit by local policemen in my neighborhood. He let me go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)
13) 1991 FZR 400 with 632 big bore Wiseco motor stuffed into it. Also very fun little corner ripper that I take to the Dragon in Tennessee every couple of years.
I do all my own work on everything and nothing has stickers on them…all paint.
Oh yeah…and last but not least the 74 2.0 Olympic blue 914 that I’m currently building a 2056 for.

The last few…..

I'm envious... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif)

That 4-runner is the SUV I recommend the most often. I tell my customers those will survive the "zombie apocalypse."
Sadly, I don't make much money off of them.

Even the "baby" bikes have license plates! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

Nice collection!

You left off the Ford powered 347 "posi" Opel G.T. again...

And I was right!

You're as serious as a heart attack...

I bought the 1985 Ferrari 400i as a basket case in 2013, painted and restored by a friend in his driveway over 1.5 years back in 2013. In 2014, bought another personal dream car of mine being a 1985 Maserati Quattroporte. I still own both, neither looked remotely similar to what the pics show, they’re not reliable, but still are business in the front and party in the back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Chad911sc]

I never finished the Opel Gt. One of my neighbors had to have it, drove me crazy until I sold it to him. He still hasn’t finished it yet either! Had all the drivetrain built and installed just needed interior and paint. I also left out the pictures of it because I wanted to only post the rides that I currently still have and own.

A future project that I’ve had for 5 years now….

[wwheelock]

My Japanese version of the 914!

The 73 914 that I purchased in 1989 finally has paint. Hope to be driving it by June of 2025!

Classy looking Hudson. The early NASCAR boys used to hate seeing those show up at the track. Twin H power?

Love the Buell. I bought a 1996 S1 Lightning new and kept it for 20 years. When I sold my commercial shop in 2016, I needed space in the barn at home. A close friend had been hounding me to purchase it and I sold it to him at a very weak moment. I bought a Yamaha Venture as a COVID project which I got running well but at 800+ pounds, it was way too heavy for me to be comfortable on and it was top heavy as well. The Indian FTR that I purchased early this year was a very good replacement for the Buell. It has a 6 inch longer wheelbase it’s not as nimble but with 120 hp it’s a riot!!! I guess I have a grudge against HD since they closed Buell.

Some seriously nice cars in here.

I finished building a Lotus 7 replica about three years ago. It’s a scratch build (no kit) powered by a Miata 1.8L turbo drivetrain. Weighs roughly 1350lbs. Link to build thread: https://www.locostusa.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17715

About to put a roadster chassis under this baby… 46k original miles.

[technicalninja]

That is a Datsun Z-car! Look at the doors and window trim.

I've almost bought one in the past. Wish I did.

Of note: The original "Z-car" design was for Ferrari. They rejected it and chose the Daytona. That is the reason the engine compartment is the length it is. It was designed for a "skinny V12" and is long enough for anything. Bunch of V8s are too wide but nothing is too long...

My Dad and I visited Joe Alphabet's shop in Huntington Beach in the mid 80s.

We were expecting a fiberglass shop; my dad was big into fiberglass.

It was a Ferrari restoration shop first and a glass shop second. Tons of cool real Ferraris everywhere.

The Alpha One was the very best kit made IMO.

I believe Ferrari ate him for lunch before it was over...

I would buy and drive that specifically because it’s not a real Ferrari….what a cool copy/kit

No Twin H, just a standard 6 single carb. The body will be going on a modern drivetrain.

picked up this lil’ baby last month.

Kinda handy around the ranch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Almost all original, mint 1980 928 5-speed. I added 16" Club Sport wheels.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/hosting.photobucket.com-21449-1735657708.1.jpg)

Almost all original, Concours 1986 944 Turbo purchased from original owner.

Almost all original, mint (does not use or leak oil) 1987 944 S. I added 993 Cup II wheels.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/hosting.photobucket.com-21449-1735657709.3.png)

Owned for over 11 years 2011 Cayman S w/PDK, Sport Chrono, Bose, Sony head unit w/CarPlay & back-up cam, 19" Carrera Turbo II wheels, Softronics ECU Remap for 355+hp - no need for newer one, close to perfect car
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/hosting.photobucket.com-21449-1735657709.4.jpg)

Am I spoiled? Yes. Interesting note: ONLY ONE of these cars was I looking for - the Cayman - my 2nd. ALL others (including my almost Concours 914) I was not seeking to buy, but were found by friends who notified me of their availability each at a cost far below value - so much so that I could not pass them up just for investment reasons.

I am a blessed man. 944 S is available - who needs 2 944's?
