Hey guys here are some before and after pics of my 65 Notchback, the white version was 5 years after we aquired the car, it was T-Boned by an 81 year old women, the Graphite Grey version is the beast it is now. Powered by a 2.7L 914 Engine with Dual 52mm Weber Carbs. This car was purpose built to beat the crap out of mustangs at the Q on fridays, the only one to ever beat us had to squeze the nos, what do you guys think?

That's gorgeous. I'm going to have to drag my lazy butt to the Q to see this thing run.

So is that some sort of supercharger in the middle?
Is it really louds with the exhaust going stright up like that without a
tail-pipe?
Thats a 911 fan conversion, nice, the one I had on my 2110 kept it plenty cool on the 405

Thats a cooling fan in the middle and the horns going up on the sides are the intakes for the carburators

You need to lower it, about 2 inches. I understand why it's so high (launching) but it looks out of place that high.

I love it!!!
Notchbacks are one of my all time favorite cars! When I was a teenager I knew two brothers both with Notchbacks, one was soooooo perfect!
Very, very nice!
