OK, they won't be done this week, but they have started work. They plan to have the hood painted "first of the week" to get approval on the color before painting the rest of the car.

With the bright green X1/9, I'm thinking the future 914 should be orange. If I can find a Ravenna Green 914, that's what I'll get. But, there are a lot more orange ones out there than Ravenna Green. That would give me the 3 red cars, then a white E30 cab, green X1/9 and an orange 914. Although I'm not Irish, it would be a nice little grouping.

Well... There is an orange 914 in a parking lot I pass by on way home. I will snap Pic later today. It doesn't drive by the looks of it.

Are you sure it isn't a 928?
