The new Panorama has a story on a Karman Ghia body being fit to a Boxster, it got me thinking. I have seen Suby swaps, Chevy swaps what about a Boxster engine in a 914? Would it be cost prohibitive? Anyone done the swap?

Great magazine! Cool Beetle. Someone needs to do this with a 914. Maybe this should be my next build... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

QUOTE Cool Beetle. Someone needs to do this with a 914. Maybe this should be my next build... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) These guys, Wicked Garage, are building one now. I stop in every few weeks and check on the progress. It's looking good, should be done by the new year. Jon |
