This post may take a couple of post to get all the pictures in. This is a project that I took on for a friend of mine and old friend of the owner of the shop that I work at. The car is a Porsche 914/6 GT. This is not a clone but the real thing. The owner has had it for over 35 years, and years ago wrecked the car and has just gotten it back fully restored from the wreck. He said one day when he brought it by he sure would like to have a steel front valance but they do not make them and never did. Not thinking I said well I can make you one if you are not in a hurry. He said I have been waiting 35 years. I don't think he thought it would happen, and so the project began with a poorly made fiberglass one that did not fit but was a general idea as to what he was looking for and the original valance from a stock 914 to use as a template only. This is all I had to start with as we were not going to take a chance having that car get damaged in the shop.
maybe half way done.
