Hello there, it's been a while since I posted here. I first came to here to ask a few questions about the 914. I wanted to buy one. But after much research and consideration I decided against it. It had to be my daily driver and I concluded that it would be a money pit as a daily driver.
Today there is new hope. Me and a friend want to fullfill our childhood dream of building our own car. I am at the moment checking out different cars that can be used as a basis for our project. We would like to build a car with very good handling in the first place, extreme engine power isn't needed (max ±250 bhp). We would like to build a sort of home grown Lotus Elise (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . The 914 would just be used as a basis, we're going to develop our own engine and suspension (with the help of a few friends who are engineers). This will be of course be a project that will take years since we have to learn A LOT. What I need right now is structural drawings of the 914. Does this exist ? Preferably high res. example from Jeroen's site http://www.rennware.com/proj/914_idee/914R_tube.gif |

Hey Pow,
I'm not too far away from you (I'm in Hellevoetsluis, about 30km south/west of Rotterdam) If you're interested, you and your friend are more than welcome to come over and have a look at my almost bare chassis and swap some ideas... |
