I envisioned a Creamsicle, w/ a 2.0 6, so you dont have to chage the badge on the back, M471's w/ matching ground effects & 5 lug Mahle Gas Burners painted phoenix/red.

No, I kind of think of myself as a renegade purist( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ). But yes, a 3.0 would be nicer, just w/ a 2.0 on the back & Mahle gas burners inside M471 flares you could fudge the uneducated & say it's stock( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) )!

The hard part would be the LE front spoiler.. somehow it has to look like a flared stock spoiler w/ a stock looking air intake for a cooler, in orange. I'm sure it can be done but that would be a lot of glass work on the front spoiler alone. Still look like an LE, but a GT-LE. Just a dream of mine now for 30 yrs or so. What a pretty car that would be. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) Attached image(s) |

Gimme a fiberglass LE spoiler and I'll make it fit the flares. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Gauranteed. I cut this one into 5 pieces and have it back to looking RIGHT now. Took 1.5 inches out of it. No digi before pics or recent pic ....yet

since this the reat has been reshaped to fit correctly and only needs finishing werk.Fibreglass isn't that hard to werk with, if you aren't afraid of it

Creamcicle update.
So today was a good day. I went to the DMV to check the status of the Creamcicle's history. I did not want to get the car home and then find out that there would be problems with the registration. Good news was that the car has been off the books for so long that there are no back fees and not a problem to register. I will have to take the car to the CHP or DMV for a VIN certification but then they'll issue a title. Since I'll be trailering the car home I'll just leave it on the trailer for the additional trip. While I was at the DMV in Los Gatos I met a nice guy named RB who was there with his nice yellow 1973 6 conversion. I gave him the info to 914 World and hopefully he'll be joining us. He was from the Alamden Valley. This was good news for the day. The next step is going to figure out how to get a car minus the engine and trans off the current trailer it is blocked up on. It is about 4 feet off the ground and on blocks without wheels. I have access to two manual pallet lifts which can raise a pallet weighing 1000lbs about 8 feet in the air but I am nor sure if the base of the lifts will interfere with the wheels on the current trailer. I'll continue to work on that issue. Here is a picture if the current trailer and what I am up against. Attached image(s) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Thanks for the story and info....sounds like you need to borrow a fork lift to get that tub off the trailer.....or build a rolling table/rotisserie onto the tub where it sits. Should be fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
