Until I read this thread, I had completely forgot that I had an old 914 model that I never finished maybe 15 or more years ago! I just dug it out of some old boxes. Looks like the first paint job failed and I started sanding on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) Looking at it now, I think I might leave it the way it is and mount it up on jackstands. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
That or start a restoration thread on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
It's an Entex 1/20th scale and says Porsche 914 on the box but it has 5 lug wheels and a 6cyl in it. So it's actually 914-6...I guess thats a good enough reason to restore it. Sorry pictures are blury.

I have that model too - the shrink wrap was torn, but the box has never been open. It is something I should hold on to/not build up?

I am watching the stores too... I really want a hot wheel 914!!
