Anyone here remember the name of the kid with a silver factory /6 that had a 3.6L in it?
He used to post quite frequently several years ago.

I think he was from So-Cal ...

George Hussy?

Great, first reply is gonna completely derail this thread. Sigh ...

Enrique Mar?

No, he's got the Signal Orange car.

Different guy, used to post a lot for a while.

Mike Wills?

Sleepin?

My silver car was a half six...no where near 3.6. More like 1.5.

I don't think it was me.

if 3.0 would be o.k. for you, it might be "dbu356"

I know who you're talking about. Can't think of the name right now either so, not much help. I thought he had 3.6 in his name. Projected stalled for a while, I thought he was going to get it back on track last year though.

It's not Steve (siverson) is it?

Nope and i think you are right, he might have had 3.6 in his username.

Think he was from Palm Springs or maybe Hemet if that helps.

Hmmm, did he rename or delete his account?

I don't think so. It was a pretty bitch'n build if we're thinking of the same guy. Someone here must have it bookmarked. If I recall, someone bumped his thread recently and asked him the progress. Something about body-shop issues and he needed to get back at it.

Marv's3.6six.

Harry Wong ? Silver -6 with 3.6L in So Cal

This one Elliot?

Yep. Marv's car is one of the nicest I have ever seen. EVER.

No, not Marv either.


Ok, this is starting to freak me out...


I can't find a single post from the guy anywhere. I went through the moderator logs and found no evidence of a rename or delete of any kind.
I'm almost certain he had 3.6 in his name.

The car was originally yellow and redone in silver and stuffed with a 3.6L engine.
He used to post a lot of pictures of him driving it on the backroads in Socal. Young guy.

Craig ? Patrick MS 3.6 in a silver car...?

Craig who? We only have what, 10,000 Craig's?

Marv's is the one I was thinking of.

Was the one you're thinking about built from 2 cars? One with a real six VIN and the other with a good body???

It might help if we knew the time frame you are looking at; I have a lot of pics from WCRs since 2005

Yepp, that's the one ...

Lemme see what I can do...

Found him!

Thanks Erc ...

OK, so who the hell is it??

I remember exactly who you mean...

What was his name?

Didn't "dgw" (or "krk"?) have a Six that was a stitched-together car? That someone sold to him as not a Frankenstein?

--DD

Yes, but KrK is not who i was looking for.

For starters, he's not a young guy ...

AND A NAME...

Y'all suffering from CRS

Andy:

Curious minds need to see..........

He called it Zombie 914-6 ?

Wait a minute. Andy had a difficult time using the search feature? Roll the trucks. We have a headline!

Thanks Elliot. I went sporting about town yesterday, drove around Huntington, Seal and Long Beach areas. The car is soooooo fun to drive, slow, fast whatever.

Slight hijack... Sorry Andy.

At least his name wasn't Mike. Mikes seem to like buying 914s as there are about 200 of them on here.

Try searching for "Dude who's name i can't remember that has a silver 914" and see how far you get with the search ...

Anyways, there is a story here and i think it may be time that story was told.

Do tell.............

waiting for the story

C'mon,what's the story man? Maybe drivability knows?

Here's the short version:

2009: Guy buys VIN tags and assorted parts (no engine) from a cut up and rusted out factory 914-6 for $3,950

2011: Guy starts posting here showing pictures of his "factory six" that clearly show a /4 tub with /6 parts

2014: Guy sells the car as a restored original /6 for $35,600

2016: Car is now for sale online for $75,000 and again represented as a restored but otherwise original /6

I think you should have left them in suspended dramamation a little longer... that was fun!

Well, there still is the LOOOOOONG version of the story ...

Sounds like the '67 Corvette 435 world.
Someone's gonna have some 'splainin to do

I would love to see the pics of the ad from 2014 and the current one

The car hasn't changed between 2014 and 2016. In fact, the current Ad uses pictures from the 2014 Ad.


The real juicy pictures are the ones from the 2009 pile of rust when compared to any of the ones that came later.
