I recently bought a 1975 914, no engine or transaxle, as part of the purchase, but enough of the car left that it makes sense to do some sort restoration project with it.
I was thinking I would do a GT tribute project out of it, but I am curious to see what the community feels is important to label a project as "GT Tribute" From what I gather the key elements of such a project would include the following. - pumped up engine (is a 4 cylinder 2.0L qualify) - 5 lug conversion - bigger brakes - suspension upgrades - GT fender flares - appropriate interior additions (console and gauges for example) Are any of these non-negioable to classify a project as a GT Tribute. Or is more like "I'm doing a GT Tribute, lets have some fun, and let's do a really awesome details job" that is more important. Trying to gauge how to go about such a project that would results in the greatest value at the end of the project and also get kudos when showing it off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Thank you all, this was great. Fun hearing everyone's perspective. Gives me good direction as I think through the project.
