RAYCO

Not directly 356 related, but applicable to my new 356 project in that it DOES apply to the 914 which IS a Porsche and SORT of an off-shoot of the initial IDEA that LEAD to the 356 . . .

Does anyone know if RAYCO is still in business, they made a single simple body kit for the 914. Short of that, does anyone know of a RAYCO front clip for the 914 that might be for sale?

Thanks!

Hummm - no email or web site kind of dates the entry!

Ya got my curiosity up --- I remember the Chalon but not the Rayco.

Here's picture of the Rayco kit - members.rennlist.com/914_collectibles/zWildRayco01.jpg

And here is the Chalon -

I actually prefer the "Beach Boy" version the best -- more 911 look:

And then there's the Sport Wagen version:

Thank you so much for the pics!

You're right, that Beach Boy number is very 911-like and NICE!
Thanks for the RAYCO contact as well, I'll try them Monday.
