OK spent this past Saturday at a PCA event in South Bend. There were two other 914's both /6 conversions. Sorry, no pics of them but one was a coversion Perry did (very nice). Later Jiim912928 stopped by there and we are talking about conversions and well I think I finally have a direction I want to go with my car. A nice /6 driver that is used for AXing.
Its going to be a /6 but I am working a three year plan while keeping on the road during the summer months and collecting parts. I know, I know, its cheaper in the long run to buy one that is done but hey, wheres the fun in that
So my plan is this: Now,start collecting parts, winter of 2005 do the 5 lug conversion and brake & suspension upgrade. Summer 2006 collect more parts, winter 2006 body work (steel flares, Engman stiffing kit, minor rust repair, paint and new seals). Summer 2007 collect yet more parts, winter 2007 install /6 engine(not sure maybe a 3.0?), oil tank, cooler and various other misc items. Summer 2008 drive the piss out of it
I think this can be done this way, I guess I will find out. Oh, and here are few action shots from this past Saturday. Sean, the numbers look great, got a lot of compliments on them.
