It was the seat that threw me off. Hell of a pilot though to fly that thing back to the carrier and then land it with the sunroof open like that.

I think they arrested the killer bunny!

Symbolic just delivered a red/black Bug to rapper T-Pain (sp?) last week. How many could there be?

Hey, thats Buddy Amato! (The SPCA chief, here in Monmouth county.) The guys a legend!

The pattern looked too familiar so I figured it had to do with the oil patch. I narrowed it down to three different companies but wasn't sure which one, they were very similar.
Then I checked the properties of that pic you posted and that gave me the final clue.

"Good nosepiece," Bob mused, casually looping his thumbs on his belt, "but certainly not a great nosepiece."

Iffn you like that old slide valve throttle body picture you might like this one, on a modern Lexus V8 race motor (that'd work great in a 914, BTW):

Volvo engine swaps

And they are sweet in old Hot Rods too Hurley Haywood & Bob Snodgrass had a few build years ago

And if anyone wants to build up one, I just happen to have a few bits too do just that...

Lexus 4.2 V8 engine with an extra 4.7 crank, TRD oil sump, TRD cams the racing oil plate, ect. Stock headers and no intake (TRD sells one to work with a Holley). It was taken down at 42K as it was going to be built to a Ivan Steward type engine.
Here are some of the goodies I have to start with. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1136933000.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1136933023.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1136933036.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1136933047.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1136933056.jpg

This is 800px wide, is the version that you have on your PC bigger? PP will shrink images down to 800px wide when you upload, so maybe the original is smaller?

Do you still have the original that you downloaded from the web on your PC

The file I downloaded is just 55K Sorry. It is just 800 pixels wide.
