Well I'm a newbie, but looking forward to help, comments, and thoughts as I bring my 73 x19 2.0 back to life. It is Phoenix Red, and I am the original owner, well my dad was, but it was always his and my car. I drove the car to my senior prom in 1974.
Dad passed a few years ago, and I finally freed up the time to get started refurbishing it this winter. This is an original California car has been in storage since 1993. I got it out of storage last month after making room in my shop, and am beginning to take it apart. I will post pictures as I go and keep a running blog going so all of you guys (and gals) can keep me from messing anything up. I want to do it right.

Damn...they run the fuel lines through the cab??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
I'm most definately going to change those to the strongest aircraft quality that exists. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) No wonder so many 914's burn up. Rob...Vacuem lines to what? Sorry just wondering. I'm sure I'll figure it out once I get the fuel tank and engine out. And yes...all the vacuum hoses are just falling off in my hands. I'm sure the FI seals are all toast as well. |
