This is my 914. I bought it in San Francisco back in 09. I haven't been able to find any info on this convertible conversion and was wondering if anyone knows anything about the kit or if they recognize the car.

Beach Boys Racing made a kit like that.
Very cool car btw. Can you show more details about how the top folds into hiding, and access to the engine bay?? |

QUOTE(r_towle @ Jan 11 2014, 07:34 PM)  Beach Boys Racing made a kit like that. Very cool car btw. Can you show more details about how the top folds into hiding, and access to the engine bay?? Im not home to get those pictures but it is very simple. there are 2 clips on the plastic behind the engine that the bottom bar of the top slides into. in front of the engine, beside the head rests are 2 bolts were the frame of the soft top pivots. and 2 tabs with quick pins on the top of the windshield. the deck lid is an insulated and carpeted piece of plywood held down with 2 allen wrenches. the top has to come off to access the engine. so being as I park it in my shop I leave the top off and drive it when the weather is nice. |
