Well, we yanked the motor a couple of weeks ago to get it ready for MUSR and I started really digging into the car yesterday with the motor out and well, I found this. HELL HOLE!

Jason,
Mine was that bad at one time. And the fender was worse.... This is what I started with. (IMG:http://www.perrinefamily.org/photogallery/igor/DSC00333.JPG) And this is what the same car looks like now. Attached image(s)

I have to admit... I didn't do the replacement. I paid a body shop. While I can do body work, I take way too long doing it. It took the body shop a year to do the body and paint work on my car. Yes, I AM short. But I have no problem driving a 914. I can reach the pedals fine with the seat all the way forward. |

You better get going as its getting worser by the minute just looking at it. Cut it out and replace it with good metal and save the long. |
