So I've been looking for one of these for years. Scored one on ebay at 1:00am this morning. Only paid $54! I think that's a sweet deal for an NOS part. I almost had a NOS 914-6 badge too but some auto snipers kicked the bid up to $261 at the last second! Zowwie!

So engine spec will go a little like this: 2056 with 2.0 case Fully balanced KB pistons and AA cylinders Rebuilt heads with new SS valves and new guides Raby 9550 cam kit Chromoly push rods and NOS tubes D-Jet with NOS injectors and NOS air temp sensor (so far) Triad twin exit exhaust Powder coated tin Car specs should be something like this: Rebuilt side-shift trans Fully polished 2.0 fuchs Full PMB restored brake set-up Tangerine fuel hose and pump relocation set-up 90% new rubber, OEM and 914 rubber Scotty B body work and paint Leather stock seats New door panels and carpet kit from 914 Appearance Under dash gauges (in the market for the gauges) LE front valance Chrome bumpers et al..... |

Built a Garage....
We use this shrink wrap stuff to store boats for the winter. I built a tube-frame then covered it with the shrink wrap. Voila! Instant garage. Now I can work on the car again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)   Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(scotty b @ Dec 22 2012, 01:40 PM) Scotty what was the primer and paint used? Looks like it was primered grey, then sealed with white but what was the redish orange it turned to or is the photo's not in sequance? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Also on my car I have a few pin holes in the front trunk channel above the fenders should I just spot weld to fill them in? Also the front channel is toast by the front trunk latch did you make the c channel or is there a supplier that sells it? Sorry the the high jack! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

The funky color was a sanding coat Scotty gave it. He sent it back to me to do the floors/trunk so I wouldn't hose up the new paint. Also he said something about some "real work". I think he meant a 911 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) the grey was a high buiild primer that got sanded smoth then epoxy was put on since it was going to sit for a while. Like Mike said. the red was just a guide coat to let me know where any high or low spots are when I go to do a fnial sanding. for the trunk channel you either have to make it, or fill the pits with some filler. I use JB weld in that case. Just make certain you get it good and clean before putting any filler in or you will just waste your time. |
