I thought it looked like a super charger.....I particularly like the EIGHT pipes cool_shades.gif

PLEASE tell me you photoshopped it and nobody really built that barf.gif

My GOD headbang.gif

I know it's you car and you can do what you want with them...BUT.... headbang.gif




IT's funny how some people get all worked up over the rear reflecter add-on.. smile.gif Compared to this it's not so bad.


Also, isn't the intake coming out the engine grille ment to face forward? Assuming there is a big V8 in there nut I am sure it's for looks. Speaking of looks, I love how they added everything from the Pepboys "RICE" isle for the interior.

CHeers what a great way to start the week.. icon8.gif icon8.gif icon8.gif

Is that what that is? I thought it was a wad of balled-up aluminum foil.

I bet there is a V8 in there for a couple of reasons. 1st there is 8 exhaust pipes which, although rediculous, I have seen before on Camaros and Corvettes. Second, yes the intake is facing the wrong direction, BUT, there is a roof scoop with piping to the base, so I think he has fabricated something for forced air. Also why the hell have those HUGE slicks in the back if you can't even get them to turn with a 4-banger. While I don't think that the car is very attractive, I think it is a purpose-built racecar, and I betcha it wins races. Someone on this board MUST know whos car this is.

How much you wanna bet that the guy that owns this restaurant owns (owned) the car...

http://www.grandcouleedam.com/lapresa/aboutus.html

It is in Grand Coulee, Washington. The owner of the restaurant matches the name on the license plate.

Good detective work, huh?

Check out the side view mirrors... hey buddy they're crooked?

I like that site Karl, 61 visitors since April 2002. Probably half of them from here LOL!

I must say too, DAMN good detective work. I am halfway tempted to call and ask.

I say you guys have your next Northwest 914 meet there and freak the guy out! Fill his parking lot with 914s.

He'll get all excited and drive his over and everyone can laugh!!!

Oh now that is just wrong---LOL

C'mon now.... that poor guy has probably put COUNTLESS hours of work into that "car", and is probably quite proud of it.

Personally, I'd rather be drug from a rope, behind the car, that to have someone seeing me drive it....

But... it's his car...... I think he needs some bouncie-bouncie hydros to make the "conversion" complete

the worst part is that he actually had a probably very nice 914 and butchered it like that, makes me sad barf.gif

Karl, you are too funny!
151 visitors now. The guy's probably wondering why the newfound interest in the website?
rhodyguy
you guys are a tough bunch. all else aside imagine it with the lights up. the g.c. is an interesting area. the north cascades hiway is a fine road. western wa there and back would be a tiring drive in one day.

laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif Heh.....But at least he managed to not get modelling glue all over the cockpit glass so you can't see the pilot inside. And the decals are straight

I'll bet you'd be suprised to know it started out as a Plymouth Voyager.

I must admit I like those rear box flares, especially if those vents really are functional. I must admit the headlights look stupid and the goofy red interior touches are hideous but I really don't hink it is all that bad. Of course, I tend to appreciate anything custom because you can tell someone was thinking (apparently this guy did some of his thinking while high or is just color blind, I'll admit).

Ok.

I was in Washington state a while back, I notice this 14 is from Washington. My partner and I rented a couple of motel rooms that someone had stolen the heating/air conditioner unit appearance covers from (you know the kind that usually sit below the front window of the motel room). I wonder if it was this guy? His rear fenders look just like the missing heating/air conditioner unit appearance covers. barf.gif

Hmmmm. I usually try to leave my pallet in the garage, as my girlfriend gets upset when I bring them into the house. I'm not sure what she would say if mine was tempted into the restaurant.
