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.

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 biggrin.gif !

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 poke.gif ! 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.

Left CA on a truck yesterday. It's feeling the wind wash over it after 15+ years of sitting idle.

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

Getting any lake effect Mark? If it moves along it will be snow blasted clean. My shop is 40 degrees at the highest lately.

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!
