I drove Skline's car home, the big 1300 mile trip in a 914-4 2.0 FI........And that was enough for me. I pushed the car into the garage and sold the engine, FI, Tires, wheels and a few other 4cyl related items. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Here is a couple of shots of the progress of Scott's old car. There has been a lot done to it you will not see. I just snapped some shots last night to give a quick update on this project. So please excuse the mess around the car. I have also been working on A LOT of customer cars lately.

Probably not. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) It is a loooong story. But around 15 months ago, my wife and I got scammed on a house deal that cost us buckoo bucks. We are getting down to the last of the fallout and if I sell this one, it could just about get us out clean. It's been really hard to let any of the sixes go. But yours and the flared orange one have gone to great homes, so that makes me feel good. This one will most likely find it's way down to CAMP as well. With each one, I get a little more standardized with the conversion and things turn out a little better. So this will be one of my best, certainly one of the quickest due to the 2.7S engine. Scott Kline(PO) did a nice job prepping the body for paint as well as fixing up the hell hole area and such. So whoever gets this one will have a nice 914-6. I probably won't do all the finish work to it either. It will help to keep the cost down a little and someone can do what they want to it. By that I mean: I won't put side mirrors on it. Holes properly welded closed, buyer puts on what they want. I will paint the vinyl areas so someone can leave them painted or put vinyl on them. Upper and lower Dr. Evil re-covered dashes. Not installed though. Stuff like that. Craig may do some detialing like pop in a carpet or something. It will be driven down to his place, so should be a driver easy.
