It only took 9 months, 13 days, and 3 hours to get my red 1971 Porsche 914 back on the road after the rear-end accident. It is finally registered, insured, licenced, and back on the road. I drove the car to work today for the first time since Jan 4.
The only parts replaced were the chrome bumper and taillight. The fender, rear end, trunk lid and lower rear valence were pounded out and repaired. It took a lot more work than I had anticipated but is was worth it. I lost part of the racing stripe on the side and the paint almost matches the original paint. The paint was free so no complaints here. I may paint the rest of the car sometime in the future. Spoke Attached image(s)
