We've been working on a '74 2.0 that we picked up a year ago in VA. Solid for the most part, floors are nice. Over the past 2 months we have been doing some work on it.
The goal is just a nice driver. It will be the original Phoneix Red (which is more orange than red). It will be powered by a 2.0 FI, if I get can the D-Jet figured out. I'll update this thread weekly or more often, whenever something notable gets done. Heres what we started with ![]() ![]() |

Today was an eventful day. Aside from going to an interview and being accepted to my 1st choice college (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I was able to spend a nice part of the day working on the 914. Along with a friend, we worked on finishing seam sealing underneath the rear trunk panel that was welded in. After a trip to FLAPS to pick up a few cans of undercoating (we're using Dupli-color professional rubberized undercoating @ $7/can), we cleaned up the drivers front wheelwell and started spraying. The can says to shake for 3 minutes, but that left it too watery. A few more minutes thickened it up. It goes on evenly and covers well. My plan is to undercoat all 4 wheelwells, and touch up some areas underneath where the original undercoating has worn away.

Its held up really well for the past 6K or so (this winter will be the real test). Congrats on your college admission! If I may ask, where did you pick? |
