So my main 914 project is still in a state of limbo........................................................ I am not even sure what color it was......
I saw a 914-6GT project on the rotisserie the other day that has really got me to thinking. Maybe I will start another project and go the six or rat4 flared GT route. I'm tired of not having a running 914. So vendors, half finished project hawkers, finished car sellers beware. I am beginning to believe that I can do this car right. I don't think that I care about historical accuracy to an extreme degree, but they did so many things right with these cars it is sensible to stick close to the plan. Wish me luck.

That's what got me thinking was chassis. Study carefully what stiffening steps were done at the factory for the orginal 916gt's. I just saw a car with all of that done and there had to be 250 hrs worth of welding done to it. This car will be so stiff! So because I am an idiot and have "Take advantage of me" written all over my face I have 20K into a non-running car that has NO chassis stiffening done. IF I start another 914 project it will be chassis up!
