first off i want to thank dino for the opportunity. last thurs i was reading his thread indecisiveness about keeping and selling his car, called him and done. it's not often you find a chassis this clean, with all the time, effort, and $$$ already thrown at it. see "indecisiveness thread". thanks again.
the set from the red car went on the silver car, the set from the silver car went on the green car, and the set from the green car went to les schwab and the tires were dismounted from the Fuch wheels. i'll post these and take some more pics.

car and garage shots. the car will be painted back to original irish green, steel wheels w/nipple style no crest hubcaps, the metal front valance on the silver car, early rear bumper. as it would have looked when it rolled out in 1970. except for the 2.0. i have a bunch d-jet stuff and will attempt to go back to fi. this whole excursion started because i wanted to trade my valance for the LE style on his before he sold his car.

That silver 914 looks awesome.
+100 for putting the stock metal valence back on.

Did Dino keep the early light tan interior?

it is still in the car. needs a deep cleaning tho. i think it will make a nice combo with the irish green. i think the interior will stay cooler, temp wise, for open roof driving. hotter climates make for brutal interior temps in my experience. so brutal i've put a white sheet across black seats during long distance runs.

the 75' is still here. i tore in to it for a while on sat removing interior stuff. the ins co didn't total it. they gave me
enough to
fix it.
NOT!!!, but a fair sum imho considering the non- op status. i kept it with no buy back and no branded title. you need something off of it rich?
