This past winter finally got around to addressing some of my car's issues. Hoping to have it back on the road soon!
75 2.0 D-Jet.
New battery tray and all rust areas treated with Por-15.

Great work, looks like you're getting very close, engine compartment really looks great all black like that! I might just go back and do mine next time i drop the motor.

Got to love a black 914!

Don't want to be 'that guy' by saying this, but hopefully you removed as much of the rust on the floor plans as possible, degreased the area and then converted what was left before applying POR15. Just applying it directly over rust will not yield long-term affective results. It's all about the prep. Don't forget the underside of the floor pans, too.

Car looks great. Wish my engine and engine bay looked like that!
