Any one remember this custom 914 ? I found this old picture from when I was in school and wondered out to the Pomona Swap meet and car show back in the late 80's This 914 is wearing period correct mods for the 80's ...

Wonder where it is today?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Mike...I never rocked that 911 tea tray on the 914...it's hideous (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) , unless on an rsr 911 !
The color scheme reminds me of Darell Vitone's VW hot rod builds, but he was all type4...never touched the v8 conversions. Back then the v8 conversions were only Rod Simpson Hybrids, or the Hauser bros. (JaideCar; Renegade (Andrew Leany) came along a little later (never innovated the conversion ) . Carlsen Porsche+Audi track 914 also used a similar color band theme, but The Jury is still out; we will keep digging in the archives for more history on this 914.
