Signal Single Orange 74 EG33 Swap, Gone but not forgotten Options

[914forme]

Okay this is the car in all its glory ugly as heck, but hey its an auto-x car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) This one is from my first season of auto-x with this car.



Heres what it looks like today. Made it even uglier (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)



Here is the goal, I can sketch ideas, but I can not draw at the level of others on this forum. Thank you 914 Visulizer. and my black pen. Now if I could find a good front view. And the flares are not on the car since I'm not using GT Flares.



But you get the general idea.

Okay things change in the world.

Centerline-ish wheels are 8"x15s, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) they are light (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) they have been welded a few times (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Not going to race them, just to many un-kows. Don't want to beat up the seller as he did not know, and I should have done more homework. Live and learn, no hard feelings what so ever. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

So I started down the long slippery sloop of wheels again. I grabbed a set off a member here, keep my money on the board when ever possible. They are boxster 16s both 6 and 7s. Okay they are light, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) , and oh look at that I can get Hanooks for them cheap, thank you tire rack closeout. One set down.




Dang it I really don't like these Kumho, had them on a Spec V once, terrible in the rain. Oh wait my 914 doesn't see rain.



I'm too cheap to just toss these away. So off to find another set of wheels for the street. I found a set of 6 and 7x16s Fuchs. That would make a nice combo for the car also. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) But let me check around and see what else I can find. Craigslist, oh a set of Boxster 6 and 7x16s with caps - $250. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) that has got to be a miss print. Nope $250 cash, pickup. Okay done, these are super clean.



I was a little worried about the area I was in, somewhat shady. But it all worked out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Meet a great guy, old Rally, and hill climb guy, ran Pikes Peak. Runs a little shop on the north side of Columbus, had 3 Audi Quattro 2 coupes and an Audi 200 wagon, you know the one with the 20v turbo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Great set of cars to build a awesome swap. Then I saw a car I wanted to grab. 83 GTI dude your killing me. How can you have 2 cars I love, always wanted to own sitting here as a when I get around to it thing. Then the shop door went up, and I saw the third car I wanted ever since I saw the article of MSDS' 911 swap into a VW Synchro double cab. Dude really, that is a super clean Syncro. Your killing me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Okay yes I just broke a commandment, but it was a good one to break. We shot the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) for an hour and I headed home. There was a rusted out 914-4 chassis out front, sad really. Hate to see them rusting away.
