Cheer or Boo?
 

I can't decide. It's awesome. It's also terrible.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should, I guess.

The flares are weird .

Ingenius! Do I like it? Yes. Could I do it? No. Tip of my hat to the guy!

Hisssss

Wow! Full respect for the attention to detail!
If he likes it he's happy and don't care what you or I think...

Crazy fabrication skills.

Oddly interesting, almost Audi TT

"A" for effort. But no.

The ridged metal on the wheel well areas are rather fugly and ruin it for me.

Take those off, and I could almost see it being a future-ized 914 style if the metal for the now gone rear quarter windows were removed.

Boo

Lot of time and skill involved in that build.
Nicely 'executed' 912 mod.

Hope he gets some quality road time out of it.

(edit: I did say 'executed' 912)

Looks like a lot of fun.

Perhaps some day he'll find the time to do his own unique bodywork style on an even greater part of the car.

They call it a redneck build in the article but it's much more involved.

I am very impressed but the purist in me votes boo.

Great skills and all that but at every level that's just horrible!


And he's built something that's basically unsellable.

that cannot be unseen, too bad

needs better wheels to fill out the wheel wells better. But crazy cool build.

Andrew15 built a 914 with a Nissan V6 in it. I drove it at Watkins Glen and Brainerd. It is a fast, well set up race car. He could have just as easily done an LS transplant.

The wheelbase was unchanged and it didn’t ruin the dynamics of the car. I suspect that this mid engine 911 would not handle anything like a 911.

Cheers. Now go find some Bondo...

Applaud the skill...

"Karl Gaskins bought his then-beige Porsche 912 new in 1966, trading off a 1953 Studebaker Starlight Coupe and a split-window Beetle to acquire Porsche’s flat-four special. "

Lets have a moment of silence for this 912.


Yes, mad sheet metal skills (I spent ten years as a tin knocker) but not meant for a 912.
