ok, work got in the way of my build. 2 weeks in Mass and no 914 world to keep me busy at night.
So, off the car went today. Much thanks to Robert and Rich. Robert for doing the heavy lifting and Rich for the lifting and the truck. No, your eyes aren't playing tricks. that is a 6x12 trailer.. close fit! Attached thumbnail(s) |

so, it may go to paint this afternoon or Tuesday morning. It all depends on how much is left to do on the body. From the looks of it, I missed 3 or 4 low spots and the cowl has to be finished.
More pictures when we have color. |

Car is looking great. Just had a quick flick through your pictures.
I don't seem to see any provision for water cooling. What is your plan for this? |

The radiator will be in front of the motor in the car. There is about 9 or 10 inches there with the shelves cut out. The side intakes will feed the intake. Don't worry, more pictures to come!
