A continuation of the original thread...

914 GT Build Thread

2014 Progress Thread...

Figure I'd post some pics...

In between I've been sorting out the body... basically marking up problems with a sharpie and noting all my issues for the new body guy.

I've been mock fitting some fiberglass rocker panels and valences. Drilling holes for oil lines in driver's rocker area. I also fitted the front oil cooler shroud.

Today I had to do some fitment of the Engman inner longs. I had to punch holes for the Rich Johnson Engine mount through-bolts that are inside the tub... and trim some areas that were a little tight, etc.

Here are doors, bumpers and Engman inner long stiffening kits.

I admired Dr. Evil's Tranny work...

Dusted off the 3.2L Short Stroke, with 98mm P&Cs, modified S-cams, 46mm Webers, and a bunch of internal goodies...

A new "Lost Warehouse" discovered... Almost everything refurbished or new.

I've spent 3-4 days sorting through ALL the parts. Placing things in bins by body area (brakes, transmission, electrical, trim, interior, oil, fuel, etc.)
