I'm assuming that Route 66 in that area has a lot of gravel, so he was protecting his signals from damage. I do the same thing at the track

I like this one... biggrin.gif

I'm not going to cast a vote for myself cuz I don't want to be a schmuck so I'm voting for Dan's car. That thing is awesome! Plus, it has 3 tail pipes. smile.gif

I gotta go with Joe Sharp's Beauty, but this is a tough group to choose only one of.

Every time I photograph my own car, I think it looks better with the roof off.

All of our nominees are shown with the targa top in place.

I haven't voted yet. SHOW US SOME TOPLESS PHOTOS!! happy11.gif Win my vote!

Here's a topless pick of my car among the presence of some pretty cool cars.

Even though the color of Proto 31 reminds me of something I threw-up once I had to vote for it. I think Dan did all the work on this thing in his garage (with a little help from THOMAS I'm sure) and that alone deserves my vote.
Cheers, Elliot

While Proto31 is probably the prettiest, my vote goes to Jim's old school hot rod!

My vote goes to Proto31. I have seen this car at the WCR 2010. It is one of the most beautiful 914's I ever drooled over. The attention to detail is outstanding.

Dan's car at the vaunted Halloween Run last year. Tough choice between Joe's car. I vote for Dan's...it is very cool.Click to view attachment

My vote goes to Proto31 car. The picture posted here does not do the car justice. Go to his build thread and check it out.
This is one of the best cars I have ever seen.

I am a working class guy (or was biggrin.gif ). Huey is a "working" 914.....maybe not a work of art but beauty is in the eye.......
Works of art get hung on a wall & dusted off every so often.

agree.gif no one will ever stand back and throw sugar at Huey, He moving way too fast! Specially with Nadine behind the wheel! driving-girl.gif You have to admire the effort it took to wreck and roll that bent boy up on the trailer and stretch him back out enough to keep rolling! That's 914 hot! aktion035.gif

Love Huey's story. I voted for him before TC had even posted all the cars.

Tough choice..........I really like Protos green beastie (it's got nothing to do with the color, honest rolleyes.gif ), but I have a huge admiration for Huey. So Huey it is. Love the story behind the car (and the fact it gets used......hard).

5 Days & 200 Votes in and Proto is up by 10.

Will it go down to the Wire?

Huey raced in the Smoky Mtn Region Spring Thing Autocross this past weekend. I was close to FTD, but not quite.

Video, Pics and what happened here:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=119943

Basically, got third to FTD behind a AX purpose built 914 and a full RSR racer. Huey is a street car, with street suspension and pretty heavy right now.

In 2009, we put 7000 miles on him. 2010, about the same. He is a driver, and he wins most Concours he's entered in. We rally him, show him, drive him all summer to most events, and now autocross him (A6's are wonderful!!).

We did not replace the chassis after the Targa wreck, we 'Chop, Cut and Rebuilt'. This little car has been through a lot.

Thank you all that voted this and last time around.

One More Day to get your Votes in.

Right now Proto holds a 14 Vote edge over Huey

One of these days we'll be building Huey replicas. biggrin.gif

Looking like once again, to bastardize a phrase "always a Best Man, never a Groom" (Huey is a guy afterall). Second to FTD in multiple autocrosses, second as COTM twice now.... Oh well. sad.gif

I'll break the news to him gently once it's final. He'll probably refuse to start...

The Contest is now over - Proto Wins first.gif

Huey gets the Jon Bovey 2nd Place Award.

I'm going to go pick up my GT, so I will forward Proto's info to the Admins to take care of the Home Page when I get back.
