(My modern 914 project) "neo914-6" - Page 2

3D914 · 3D914's Garage

Felix,

Nice artwork. I like the first two. They do a very good job of maintaining the 914 concept. This would make a very convincing modern 914.

The side view (third pic) reminds me too much of a miata - perhaps its the softer, more curved lines of the profile - where the 914s are straighter.

Just my $.02 though. Keep up the good work.

SEMA is on, I have confirmation and reservations!

Here's the 996 rads mounted, wait till you see the bumper. My designer friend dropped by after picking up his Ducati 900 and gave it the thumbs up. He said I'm like Harley Earl in the 50's working on a show car on a dirt floor before the Paris Auto Show, LOL.

My upholsterer is working on the modified backpad for the GT3 seat. I got fiberglass door cores from James that I'll mold in some pockets and handles.

Mark D made a house call and did a great job on the wiper and cowl fab.

I found someone to do the body work at my home during the day which still gives me access to it in the evenings.

Jim volunteered to rebuild my trailing arms and powdercoat them. Let's hope the Mueller needle bearings are available soon.

David, a fabricator in LA is picking up a rear clip from Joe Sharp to complete the articulating spoiler. I will have a surprise dedication in this design.

I have more S4 parts available including a GIAC chipped ECU which will yield 320hp.

Tony's wife Jes is hand delivering the clear lenses from South America next month. It will give the car's headlights a "finished" detail.
