Hello Guys,
since many years I'm working on my 914-6 restoration project. Now I have finished most of the jobs like engine and transmission rebuild, electric harness, suspension ..., now it's time for the body work. Normally before I start I try to collect es much information to get a perfect result. My body was repaired in the past by unexperienced (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) and now I have to fix this badly bodywork. See the pictures and look at the door clearence than you understand. The question is how can I fix this and if you had the same topic how was it fixed by you. Attached thumbnail(s)

For the undercoating and Paint removal I decided to use mbx. Hoppefully it works as promised (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

QUOTE(914Gelb @ May 19 2016, 06:56 AM)  Nice tool but it is still a dirty long process. Not sure that you know who you are getting advice from, but Rick is the real thing. He has helped many people straighten out things that looked impossible. I suggest following his advice as he has done this for a living. Some people like puzzles formed in metal and Rick is one of them. He can reverse an origami to flat rice paper. |
