Hey guys,

It's been a while... too many other things going on.

Just got the interior back together

Somewhat unique without being extreme.

I especially like having the radio closer to the driver.

I think I will eventually fill the old radio spot with gauges.

Lots and lots of work left!

Garold, I am supremely jealous. Nice find.

Hey Brave Helios, read Melissa Scott much? Excellent author.

What do you have for dash face material? Where did you get it?

Here is my 914, its a 72 four banger. Converted to twin Dellorto carbs, bored to 2.2Litres, fully rebuilt and modified engine. Front brakes and suspension are from a 1971 911 T, the interior was restored but vandalized and the stereo sytem stolen. It was in storage for 9 years or so and I just shipped the car to myself from Canada to Japan and am planning on fixing it up again with a new interior, new suspension, install the rear 914-6 brakes and wheels and many more things. Heres a picture, looks bad compared to most of the nice rides here. It should look much better in a couple of years hopefully

this is my new 914 ,1971 orig 1.7 now 2.o

Very nice. Get those wipers working yet?

Read Melissa Scott... not so much; but I do remember watching Deep Space Nine once or twice.

The face material I made from an aluminum sheet, along with alot of help from the local HVAC shop!

My intention is to put a SBC in the car someday. I've got most of a Renegade kit to install the engine; I am missing the radiator setup.

BTW, I have a stock 1.7 FI engine for sale. Don't know what it's worth. Any idea?

Looking for something like this maybe?

The project for Winter '08

The "new" 75 1.8

My '72. Have 4-lug Fuchs to put on yet. R

Went for a ride down to the park on a clear cold December day.

My first 914. 1973 1.8 with dual Webers allegedly set up by Rich Bontempi at High Performance House. Purchased around 1988 in Sunnyvale, CA.

My 2nd 914. Essentially built from the ground up. 1972 1.7 FI

i like the western rims

How wide are those rims? 17" x ?

I'd guess 17x7 and 17x9.

I just picked up a set of 17x7.5 and 17x9 - looks like they'll fit.

My 'new' car - this is the 'before' pic as of tonight - blurry cameraphone pic helps smooth over the rough edges...

What is this car color...? code?

Thanks

CA/AZ '75 1.8. Mostly og?

Another Q about this car... I am not sure I like the tiny wing on my trunklid and I'm thinking about removing it. Part of the reason is that it deforms the trunklid where it mounts - the lid isn't strong enough to hold it.

I kindof like the bobtail spoiler on this blue car - does anyone know who makes that spoiler?

I made the spoiler myself, as part of the glass trunk lid. The wheels are 9" on all 4, with 255x40 tires.

Alot of work!

Many hours

Nice!!!

Here's mine

But anyways mines a 1972 ..with the 1.7 of course and the stock FI

I picked it up almost a year ago and currently its still in CA awaiting me getting a job out here in CO so i can have it trucked out here.. its been a month and i miss the old girl..

Although I think I see a trunk hinge repair in your future.

Very nice!

Yeah you see right.. when i get it back to CO im gonna have to find someone to weld a new one on for me. its was like that when i got it.. im thinking of converting to a gas strut setup.

Very nice, I like the flares.


Now, what's the deal with the hotrod in the garage?
