The 914 race car arrived today, the 904 body is half built, but should be here soon. Very exciting!

I haven't lurked in a while so I'm late to the show. Still have to put in my 2 cents, and they are, "Man, I wish you would have picked a different car to do your Frankenstein build on." You say you care about the car being a Porsche, which is the seemingly only reason you didn't build a frame ground up. Yet you don't give a rat's behind about it being a Porsche. Porsche is more than a name to most of us and the donor car you selected has history. You're not honoring Porsche heritage by building a fake 904 on a perfectly good 914 chassis.
You're going to do what you're going to do, but bleh. You could have selected a different car. No excuses for that. Have fun. |

I don't think your comments aren't valid ,Adam has a lot of history in the Porsche resto world, and he has pointed that out clearly what he is doing,get over it man ..really ,wait till the car is finished and then make comment,can't see it being a hack job. Use google and have a good look @ some REALLY horrible things done to ANY Porsche and come down to earth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Its going to be another Porsche with a differant set of clothes afterall...nothing more than that,cheers. |
