For those who followed my 914-6 conversion project and kept asking for updates... well, I didn't do much for a long time... between moving, hurricanes, and getting pissed off about the paint job... I just needed to sit on it.
Well, I'm in 914 project mode again... I spent about 8 hours today in the garage.. .(half the time was spent organizing my crap and organizing all my parts). I did some work to the shell. Nicked a lot of paint. It's getting redone soon. For those that want updates... check my BLOG... |

Make sure to get some of the left over paint from you painter to use for touch up. You'll need it.... Hopefully it will be needed only for small nicks in not highly visible places.
A tip that my painter gave me. - Run a bolt through all mounting nuts/nut plates that have paint on them prior to trying to install a part. This was great advice. It is much easier to install a part when the threads are clean. And less likelihood of cross threading. |
