Throwin' something out for consideration. . . .with all of the various "rustorations" in progress, it seems that the general community could benefit from having them centralized in their own sub forum area. There's a wealth of innovative work that has been documented over the past few years by many enthusiasts (stock rebuilds, Felix's NEO914, Martin Baker's GT, all the 914 V8 and Subaru hybrid conversions, etc) and I think it deserves being consolidated in its own area. How about a (edited 19FEB07) "Completed Restoration/Build/Modification Section"?
I know we've got a blog section where individuals can document their changes. Just seems easier to handle it like the Classics or Vendor sub sections. . . . That's my opinion. What's yours? Thanks, Attached image(s) |

I think this is a great idea. When it is done and if it has the quality of information in it, make it a Classic Thread.
As soon as I get the title to my chassis straightened out, I will be building a 3.2 914-6. It will include rust repairs: we have had some great work done by members; electrical: connection of engine harness and car wiring harness; fuel pump and related fuses/relays including DME Motronic Injection; Interior: upholstry, seals, dash, etc.; Front Suspension and Steering: Carrera suspension, swaybar, torsion bars, shocks, etc.; Rear Suspension: springs and shocks with variable mounts; rear sway bar; etc.; Brakes: Carrera brakes front and back; 911 ebrake system; etc.; Drive Shafts: 914/911 with 944/911 CV joints; etc.; 17 inch Cup II rims: spacers; appropriate tires; flared fenders; etc.; Other systems and items needing information and advice. I know I will need at least a sounding board to discuss information, techniques, and methods along with materials and products to use. I think this a great idea. I would like to have something like this with reference threads to others who have built their conversions including other fours, sixes, eights, etc. These are my thoughts. Steve Hurt |
