oredith - I am efforting pictures to post, the car has the body kit from reddawgracing.com - big 911 turbo spoiler and all - I use the car as a daily driver so I usually drive with the standard 914 "roll bar" and roof installed (it also has a tube roll cage), but on weekends I take all that off and it's a convertable.

The suspension in the front uses the typical 911 anti-sway bars and Koini adjustables with 245 45 zr17's. On the rear it has 911 control arms that have a custom mount, and adjustable shocks with 315 45 zr17's.

I was looking in the paper for 914 to use as a doner for the swap when I saw the completed car for 9 grand, and it was just down the street. I went over expecting to see a pile of rust with a leakey chevy badly stuffed inside. When I pulled up, my jaw hit the floor, as this is the most outrageous car I have ever seen and is in great shape. I offered the guy six thousand he declined. After I walked away he asked if I could get the cash today, now it's mine

It handles better than any other car I've driven, in the hard corners it drifts without incident as long as you don't do anything stupid with the gas (at 1/2 throttle the rear end steps around). It takes lots of "dedication" when driving on the street because everyone from punks in mustangs to old men in beemers wanna have a go at you, and with bright yellow paint and super loud Borla exhaust, the cops take notice.
