McMark took some time out of his busy schedule to fly to CA and help me get my /6 rolling.
It will be traveling to Original Customs in Michigan soon to begin its transformation into a running and driving car.

Is this the car you put on the celette bench years ago?
Basically almost worthless at the time?
Didn't you try to sell it?
Who's laughing now?

Wow so cool to see it come to light again. Can't believe it would not sell only so many years ago.

If you plan to have Harvey do the wheels, get them to him sooner rather than later....He is so booked it is a 2 year wait at least. Well worth it, but plan accordingly.

I still have some time to figure that out, there will be a LOT of metal work before we get to that part.

Great news! It's about friggin' time

Man that is cool. Might have to swing up there when it gets a little warmer. With all the years of tolerating us keeping the site up and running Andy should get some serious NOS parts donations!. C'mon gents, we all saved a box or two of nice stuff we'll never use
! I'll look this week too.

I remember when you first pick that baby up in a universe- far far away called 914 Club.
I know, it's been over 10 years.
I'm surprised it hasn't rusted into the ground in all those years, even the wooden dolly underneath was still rolling.

Transport from my Dad's place to Altissimo underway! Shipping Co is supposed to grab it later today at Altissimo and arrive here Dec 21/22. I was able to coordinate it all from across the country.
Quick and easy.

So...stock 6 then? You just have the tub and repair panels or have you been collecting stuff?

Remember Garold is right down the lake shore (Portage IN) from Mark and he parts many 914s every month. I am glad you saved this one, good luck with the build!
