You can shock the pinkie benders by entering it in the next PCA parade autocross.

I knew you guys could do this, but what about the engine? I want to see how what you were discussing when I was out there is going to materialize (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
You can put the mini bar in the front passengers seat with access to the rear compartment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

As for the engine, for now we'll throw in anything we can find, probably some tired old 1.7L ... The flat /8 is still the goal long term, but if someone wants to donate a /6 in the meantime, that would be great! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Andy |

So what are the next steps? - Take out the center firewall - Clean up the doorjamb/sailpanel transition - Add more bracing on the inside (once the firewall is out of the way) - Patch the floor-pan gap - Add cross-bracing on the floor-pan - Make a clean center tunnel - Clean the damn thing!

So what are the next steps? Cut out the white firewall, and reinforce/fill the gap where the two chassis meet. Lots of patch panels to be made and welded in. Attached image(s) |

Just measured the wheelbase: 148 in. from wheel center to wheel center.
Stock 914 is about 96 in. Which makes it about a 50% increase in length. |

Will there be Airport shuttle service available? Will the driver be wearing a chaffeur suit, holding a name card and beer chilling in the bar? I'd pay good cash for that type of service!

The chauffeur will be wearing a Hawaiian shirt, a sailing cap, shorts and flip flops! It's the 914 way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
