Okay I made Red Rocks this year. I still have a few things not finished. So figured I better get on it.
1. Build new center console (This will be my 4th one & hopefully I can get it how I want it this time) Got the main frame together. Putting some carpet on the sides tonight. 2. I pulled the targa top off my 73 Resto & the seals are all original. Made a trip to 914 Rubber yesterday. Got the rear targa seals along with the top window seals. Got those all in today with a little help from my wife. I forget what a PITA those seals can be getting in. Used dish soap to help them slide in. Wasn't until I had my wife guiding & feeding from the top. While I was pulling on the bottom that I got them in. Tried for a while myself but didn't make much progress. Took 5 minutes with her helping. 3. Install 914 Rubber sun Visors I ordered in the group buy. I got those in but they do scrape a bit up top when folding down to up. Issue is I have the mirror that replaces the center post mount. That is just not a perfect setup but so much nicer than gluing the mirror on the windshield. Still happy with the new visors even if the do scrape just a bit. 4. Need to give it a serious wash. Do some touch up work for various chips. Then give it a good wax. 5th. Oil change & just check all fluids in general. 6th. Need to make some carpet changes with my center console. Anyway kind of a lame post but haven't made one in quite a while. Been driving my 2.0 turbo suby conversion & enjoying it. Attached image(s) |

I pulled the wheels and checked all of the basic suspension bolts and brake lines -all good. Then I cleaned the MB911 muffler so it looks really nice again. Wiped down the whole underside. Pulled the steering rack inspection cover to re-set the master cylinder switch after replacing the r/f hard line from the soft line to the caliper (had a small drip), check the oil, vacuum the car, load the "detail bag" and check the tool bag. All that's left this week is to wipe her down and put a coat of wax on her. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
