The rules may say the windshield must be safetyglass. And if there's a windshield there must be two wipers.
does that mean a helmet is legal on the street.. or goggles? |

Hey Dana, What's goin' on? Been two months and no update. I finally got the car moved down here from Laramie a couple of weeks ago, so now I can actually work on it. While I was waiting for the car to make it down I decided to stay busy and started building a vintage cafe racer. I am almost done with the bike and will start back on the Anklebiter in about a month. Here is my excuse for not working on the Porsche, 1970 Honda CL350 with many custom bits. If you want to check out the Build Thread for the bike you can find it Here. Before: Now: |

Dana, I just have to say... I hate you... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) in the nicest way possible (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) . Nice work. You have some seriously mad skills. Sweet bike. I have an old Yamaha I need to fix up some day.

Thank you so much! Sorry again for the delay in progress guys, you all will be the first to know when the build resumes. Dana. |

Nice work Dana,
I picked up a 71 BMW R75/5 for my wife, doing a lot of similar work. I have the solo saddle, but she likes the shape of the full seat, so we are going to keep that. She wants clubman or straight bars for that vintage racer look, and is spinning wrenches to get all of the little stuff done. The frame should be all stripped and ready for powder coat at the end of the week. Then let the build begin. It should be fun as the front end is off of a R75/6 and has a single disk up front. Looking forward to seeing your project in final paint. |

I just finished up the bike. I just need to re-configure the garage to work on a car instead of a bike and then pull the car out of storage. Work on the Anklebiter will resume soon!

So what kind of top will this have? Convertible or Carson removable hard top? Very cool build, your blog is what brought me to the forums.

I am thinking a F/G lift off hardtop, there is a rendering of a possible top on page 3 of this thread.
My buddy has set up shop in my garage without asking so as soon as I can get rid of him and his bike work will resume. Welcome to 914world Greco! |

My buddy has set up shop in my garage without asking so as soon as I can get rid of him and his bike work will resume. Welcome to 914world Greco! Thanks for the welcome. I saw the rendering, any idea on headroom? I found your blog when I was googling modded/chopped/convertibe 914's and found these boards about a year ago. If my roller does'nt sell then I have two choices. Either start hacking it up myself for a project or scrap it. The latter I have avoided as long as I can. I'd rather start with something cheap and running as my first project. Keep up the great work. |
