Came upon, and overtook, this highly modified 914 on CA hwy 41 south of Coarsegold yesterday afternoon. Anyone know anything about it? If local I’d like to make contact. Teeners are a rare lot in this area.

Saw it posted for sale on FB. Seemed like an interesting car for a decent asking $

Looks like it used to be a fully open race car they added a makeshift windshield and top to.

I wonder if the whole windshield and targa come out? Kind of looks like it.

Here’s a couple more photos my wife (Cathy) took of the car. They’ll probably go sideways too.

The driver was either being extremely cautious or the car wasn’t running well. It was only doing 45mph on hills. Had no difficulty passing it in my one ton diesel Chevy van. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
