I think you are promoting this guys business a little too much...

Can we just see pics of your car?

Maybe he should become a member and introduce himself?

The car looks good, but I think you are going to have trouble operating the headlights. These could have been easily removes in 5 minutes. Details, details, details. Makes you wonder whats under the paint when simple steps are skipped.

Since you keep repeating the same "grammatical error" I'm chiming in to help. When referencing someone (i.e. possession)...it is "their" not "there" (Hey Brody, its over there).

Just a thought: Is Brody/Poster one in the same?

I know what you mean about the lights I'm pretty sure they where stumped why the customer did it all also. ...as for the grammar predict a text is a bitch on new phones.......

is it a spliced shell?

maroon and robin egg

Its the green ones cut out for the hoses customer went with different hoses and clamps

What do you mean by splice shell

Cut out of from the back where hoses go pic from different car

I've seen a lot of 914's over the years that were really 2 different chassis spliced together after a wreck.

it used to be a very common practice and was an easy way to replace a clip rather than repair a unit body on these cars.

so I was curious if this was one.
you can usually tell from the VIN in the front trunk and the chassis number in the rear trunk... (or the vin on the door opening too)
