Want to donate an old Beetle?

Not too rusty please!

Greg (who I think lives near Daytona Beach, Florida, but I might be wrong) is hoping some charitable person would be willing to donate a Beetle chassis for him to use under his rare Laser 917 Type A body… If that charitable person might be you, email him at wizerd917@myway.com. Yeah ladies, he’s looking at you.

Laser 917 For Sale

Monday June 12th, 2006 @ 8:08 PM

Filed under: For Sale, Kit Cars, Laser 917

A little while back I posted about Ken’s Laser 917 for sale — he just updated me with a few more pictures, and adds,

This cars interior needs to be redone (the last quote was five hundred). The engine is new with 500 miles on it. It has an awesome paint job with pinstriping, and this car turns heads. You can’t stop smiling when you drive a car like this. Ninety percent of the on-coming traffic is sitting on the edge of their seats checking out the car coming toward them. Its a great feeling, having something that puts a smile on people’s faces!

The last real Porsche 917 sold over the phone for $3.5 million. I think car collectors should wake up and snatch up these 1970s reproductions before they’re all gone. They even used one in a Herby Goes To Montecarlo movie! I’m proud to had this car for twenty-one years and it’s never seen rain or snow.

If you’re interested, write to Ken at stages_504@hotmail.com. Don’t worry, he’s not asking $3.5 million!

Laser 917s deserve more attention!

I can’t believe that between Clive and I we only took four almost identical photos of this cleanly and traditionally finished Elite Enterprises Laser 917 kitcar. It even has a factory bumper! I was sad to see only one at a show… I fear as time goes on, more and more Lasers share the same fate as mine, back-shelved in a barn somewhere, waiting for the day the owner retires (or gets divorced) and finally has the time to finish it…

…this finished one is owned by Mark Bidwell of Neptune City, NJ, and is built on a 1971 VW chassis.

Cyan Laser 917 for sale

Filed under: For Sale, Kit Cars, Laser 917

I don’t know much about it’s history, but Ken (who I think is in the Washington DC region, or at least his ISP is) has had this car now for twenty one years (he traded it for his Mercedes), and before that it was in Germany (or so he was told). Anyway, it’s the last of his car collection that he’s selling off — if you’re interested, email him an offer at stages_504@hotmail.com.

I admit that I’m not personally sold on the color or the addition of the rear wing, but those are easy to change depending on whether you agree with me or not… Other than that, it looks like a very clean A-series (I think) Laser 917.

Mystery Laser 917D in Toronto

Tuesday May 2nd, 2006 @ 12:34 AM

Filed under: Kit Cars, Laser 917

A while back I had a really lucky day when it came to car sightings… first I followed a Pantera down the street, and then a stunning V8-based Manta Montage. Finally I noticed a VW-based D-type Laser 917 in a state of slight disrepair sitting in a driveway near Eglington Ave. West and Jane St. in Toronto… I stopped to see if I could find the owner, but no luck.

dscf0004.jpg dscf0005.jpg dscf0006.jpg dscf0007.jpg dscf0008.jpg dscf0009.jpg

Unfortunately, like too many kits, it’s sitting in the dirt with tailpipes full of mud… I left a note on the car, but never got a call, so if you know anything about this car, drop me a line.

Yes, this means that I have no ethical obligation to trespassing when it comes to seeing kit cars.
