Well I got my 71 from Cali 3 years ago and every winter it goes thru some changes but this year is the "BIG" one.
As you can see the car is stripped and getting ready to change colors. It was a factory silver car that went red and then black. Every new paint job was of a lower quality so time for a change. The car was hit in the front years ago and has a branded title so it'll never be a collector... and I always wanted a tangerine 914,so.....although going back to silver was tempting.
I'm also doing a 1911 with 36 dells. It's heart will be a Elgin 7008 with 280 dur and 333 lift. I also had my heads done with 2.0 stainless valves,cnc'd for flow and new seats,guides & springs.
These pictures are kinda all over but I'll add a few as I go.
Oh...and the fridge has the good'ol New England Porter for inspiration (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Hope your winter projects are as much fun, can't wait to be driving again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
