Front view, chassis dolly is independent of the 914 unibody...only supported fore and aft on oil drums + jack stands. Zero body sag observed ¡

Rear transaxle mount in fabrication, utilizing WEVO semi-solid blue mounts. We start out with the stout OE 915 support beam, and when complete it will support an inverted 996 gt2 trans.
