    Here's a picture of mine. Full 914/GT body from Gary Wigglesworth (molds taken off his Sunoco 914/GT of Daytona fame. Fiberglass parts are as original with Balsa wood re-enforcement). The front & rear spoilers are from Sheridan (Rear is somewhat ugly but works very well at 175mph. 2.5 litre short stroke from Bruce Jennings' estate detuned for some street use and makes about 250bhp. 944 Turbo brakes. RSR supension. Weighs 1980 wet and will pull to the 8000 rpm redline easily in 5th with big rear tires (178 mph).

    This is the car the Cayman should be...

    Re: Requesting 914 pics!

    Here is a good link for 914 pix and info

    http://www.autoatlanta.com/Life/send_pic.html

    914s have something that Boxsters will never have, and that is a successful big league international racing history.

    http://www.stazak.com/914/gt/car/car.html

    Ive owned three of them over the years. One new one I put 56,000 miles on in only 9 months, the others about 140,000 miles each during their lives. If you have any technical questions about 914's feel free to email me.
