Folks!
I am a long time PCA-San Diego Region member--probably know many of you, but this is the first time on this website.

First Name: Felix--- My baby's name-R8CER X

I am impressed with the support and knowledge on this website--looking at how many of you from different cities supported one of your fellow 914-6 owners (forget his name--green 914-6 from Colorado) to get his car repaired from the rear-end accident.

Anyhow, I am joining with 5 goals in mind:
#1-make new friends and contacts accross the states with similar 914 interests. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
#2-Help me learn more about 914's specially related to the 6 cylinder family. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
#3-Help me keep and improve on my 914-6. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
#4-Help me trace the whole history for my 914-6--Serial #9140432297. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
#5-See all of the above !! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Feel free to contact me --look forward to meeting and re-uniting with old and new friends! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif)

Thanks Lou-

I checked your links and project car--impressive!

You are probably already a great contact to help me get my typical rust underneath the passenger area fixed.

I got some stiffening kit already aligned, and very likely will need to get a passenger under panel to fix the rusty area. Luckly, my battery tray and everything else is fine.

So--I am searching for the right place, shop to do the above body welding/work and rust proofing---want to do it right, and not cut corners (figurely speaking!).

My car I would consider is 90 to 95 % rust free, with the exception of the passenger area--the panel will need to be replaced.

Any advise for shops or person? (I am dangerous around tools---but not a bad driver!!)

Thanks, it's been in the works for quite awhile. I'm anxious to get back to work on it again.

I don't have a source of the top of my head for the body and rust repair, I did the work myself, but I'm sure someone here can point you in the right direction...hmmm... you may want to talk to Marv3.6, he's down in the Temecula area and see who he used on his.

Most of the guys here do alot of the work themselves, and with lots of pictures of the affected rust areas on your car, could pretty much guide you through it if you chose to go that route. It sounds like your car is in very good condition. That's certainly a plus.
