I am installing a Chalon kit on my '72 914. I have some questions that are inadequately addressed in the kit literature. Does anyone have experience putting the fenders on? I have cut the metal and prepped the surfaces. I need to know how much of the chalon fiberglass channel to remove before mounting.
Thnx |

I used to drool over the original Chalon kit as a youngling, when they first came out in VW & Porsche magazine. Lately, I have embraced orthodoxy, so I could never do it to my car. But I still like the kit - just make sure and put those wide rear tires on it so it looks right. Everyone skimps on the details with this kit it seems...
BTW, the new assistant choir director at our Church is named "Chalon". I told her there was a body kit for a Porsche that was named Chalon. She then told me that she could use a body kit! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I said nothing. |
