One More before I get to the paint next week.
I sent out the sun visors to Interior Auto Sunvisors based on a recommendation from someone here. http://www.autosunvisors.com/index.html They did a fantastic job on the sun visors, the only issue is that they will not be able to reinstall the make-up mirror, so don't let Boy George in your car.

Ok let's pretend it has been several months since my last post. I have been busy doing some upholstrey (later post), but also getting on the flares and getting some paint on this bitch.

OK Who Is Ready For Paint????
I did something with the paint I have never seen before in a 914. I really struggled on what to do with the paint. I wanted a "Modern 914" but keep the original heritage. My options were to paint it the original Phoenix Red or do something different. I will show it without the clear to see if anyone can guess. Attached image(s) |

I don't know what color it is but leave it like that...no clear just matte, or flatten the clear. It looks really good!

Looks like you might have some pearl in the paint? WE HAVE A WINNER ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I have never seen a 914 in Pearl. As soon as I get the trunks and doors on I will post some more photos. All I can say is it came out way better than I expected. Here was the inspiration: Attached thumbnail(s) |

I have gotten WAY behind posting progress on this project. Since I posted last I decided to junk the 3.0 engine and purchase a newly rebuilt 3.2. I will post the new photos from the last year so it seems I am making lightning progress. Here are a few for today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) New M&K 2 in 2 out exhaust. I got the two in one out...I want to know how this one sounds. Looks sweet (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

I did test it on the old 3.0 I had and it sounded super. |

She is out of paint, starting to put it back together. My camera simply freaks out every time I try to photo this color. Not sure if that is good or bad. Anyway here it is. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
