The 914/6 "rust"oration process has officially begun. I sure hope I can get out for less than $10k. Plan on some stupid CW type questions in the near future. I love pics BTW. I have some nice /4 parts to sell off to help offset the cost of this project.

Motor/tranny have been removed (many thanks to Brant, Scott, Mike and Jon for the assistance). The interior will be gutted this week. I need to remove little stuff like the fuel pump, lines, drain the tank, you get the idea. Then I get to start cutting up the parts car and stripping paint off panels to avoid spending $45/hour for body shop labor.

As Rich says, "onward..."

Make some time for it! Send the kids off to Grandma's for a month along with the wife and work on the car with friends, drink lots of beer, BBQ some ribs and make some progress. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

I appreciate the thought. As soon as you start doing my work Geoff I'll start on that program. I was at the office from 7 am to 9 pm yesterday (Saturday).

Was this thread started somewhere back eons ago?? Stone Age?? LOL

I do remember this car and the thread including the great adventure driving through a snow storm. Snow storm, hell, it was a down right blizzard!!!!

I totally enjoyed every event Mike has gone through concerning this car and I just know someday in the future it will be completed. It caused me to start a replica 914-Sixer project which is now on the road, not completed, but running and licensed. I do know how everything seems to take precident over car projects.

Congratulatons on the project thus far and please post to it whenever so we can be informed.

Great Job thus far!

Only a few days shy of it's 10 year anniversary! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) That has to be close to a record for a documented build thread. I think 2013 should be the year Mike. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I was thinking about that the other day. If you had a clean tub, and absolutely every part needed, how long do you think it'd take 5-6 914 guys to get the car on the road? Could it be done in a weekend? Day? Afternoon?

That's be a blast though.

Hi Mike,
I was wondering about your 914-6 project. We all wish we had a 914-6 in our garage. Don't rush the project.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)
