Well the dream begins. I'm embarking on the building of a 914 project. Here is the candidate. Bought a roller from LA area. Looks like its not going to be too much rust. Firsts thing will be to strip it. Taking front fenders and rear quarters off. Then sending to Cal Blast for media blasting. I look forward to the knowledge that I can gain from fellow enthusiasts. Plan on taking a lot of pics Stay tuned......

Generally cages are unsafe in street cars because you don't wear a helmet on the street. Since the 914 is so small, it's likely in an accident you will bump your head on the roll cage. In that event, the cage always wins. There are plenty of other things (some Sharp) for you to hit you head on. |
