Recently just had lower spinal surgery and have had a little more time to read many of the build threads and others like the "Barn find"
And while this spinal surgery (life happens)is hopefully a minor set back for my family life and cars, it makes me want to ask the question "who's has the record for the longest ongoing build?" What kind of "life happens" obstacles caused the build to stop, or rethink your likelihood of ever completing the restoration. Kinda wishing I was Bon Jovi, and had "the power to turn back time" but never mind must be OxyContin talkin...... |

My 914 project had been mostly setting since 2002. I'd work on it then stall, mostly due to frustration from lack of either skills or knowledge, sometimes both. The board and you guys have been a huge help getting me over some of the humps.
The project has many updates and personal touches and I wanted to make it my restoration as much as possible, but I reached a point where I knew that I had to get help from the pro's or it would probably not see the road. Thanks to Chris Foley and Ed Morrow at Tangerine Racing, the systems have been integrated into a functioning whole and many of my mistakes have been corrected. This thread makes me feel better. I thought that I was in the running for longest restoration but I'm relieved to see that I'm not. More on mine in a separate thread.
