Looks like that car has a runny nose! Ha ha!

The swap meet was pretty cool, lots of beautiful cars but it seemed like it was a bigger turn out last year. Of course, I didn't get there till 10am so that might be part of the problem.

As for this 914, I really don't know quite what to think of it. It's a pretty busy looking car. A little too much so for my taste. Does this belong to the guy how owns 034 Motorsports? I've had work done there on my old GTI and they basically seemed mostly focussed on Audi's as I recall.

It belongs to me. The 034 guys have been real nice to me but I don't own the company.
I'm OK if it's too busy for you. We all have our own tastes. The car started life as a POC race car. So it has kept a race car theme.

Fun day, but no one wanted my spare top... if anyone in the bay area wants a cheap spare top, let me know.

Speaking of tops, the one on your 914 looked perfect. Did you have it refinished? If so, how was it done and who restored it?

I think it is original, like the rest of the car. Got a great spare for you to practice on...

Mike,
I'd be fine if mine looked like a rough race car if it ran. You drive yours all the time to events. My hats off to you.

If you want another rough one to start another project let me know, you can have it at no cost.
