So back in December just before the first (of many) snow storms I put away the car and decided to pull off the outter rockers and clean the years of road debris. Beneath the 30+ years of dirt there was some considerable rust through. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) My first 914 (a typical new england swiss cheese car) died a terrible deat from the dreaded red plague. I was determined not to let the same happen to this one! After reading about everyone elses repair project (by the way this club rocks!) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif) I figured that it's time for me to jump in, after all how hard can it be, right? Since the winter is about 6 months long around here, I'll have plenty of time to cut and weld with no distractions (one of the few pluses of being a car guy in the NE).

I decided to start with the passenger side. Here is what I started with.
