Andy- Man am I jealous. That looks absolutely awesome. I was looking at the picture in post 980 of the fuel pump and fuel line, is that the correct type clamp? I am sure it must be or you would not used it. I just had heard that on fuel lines the clamp should be the style without the slots so they don't cut into the hose. I bet it is OK because if the cloth covered fuel line, but thought I would ask.

Andy maybe I missed it earlier. I see a side shift tranny there. It is all incredibly clean & beautiful. I went back to see pics of the firewall. For some reason your shift spot at the wall looks funny. Maybe I'm just getting tail shift & side shift mixed up. That looks like a tail shift wall bracket. Is there a custom boot your using to keep the dust out? Hell it's just been a long day & my brain isn't working. At least I can still drool over your car

more progress, CV's and shafts built and installed, Fuel lines complete along with excel,clutch and speedo cables. Went to mount the oil hard line but didn't have the correct fitting for the 3L case so that will be here on Monday so couldn't continue with the oil lines and exhaust.

Clamps are OE German and will not cut into the lines. To answer Jamie, our relocated resident German "Thomas" built the trans and converted to side shift, I'm running sideshift gear up front with Patrick Motorsports rear tube and bushings

I know you got it covered Andy. truly beautiful work. For some reason looking at the firewall pic it just looked wrong to me. Couldn't quite figure out why. I think it was just the combo of the tail shift rubber seal lip there & the upgraded bushing. I can't wait to see the video of it firing up. Going to be sweet to see you at Route 66 next month (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Bruce Stone, he takes the time to clean everything meticulously for the best result. He's another great resource for us Teeners!!!

Thanks Again Bruce (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I never knew Bruce does cad plating. I have seen some parts in the classifieds he was selling that looked newly plated but... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Nice work Andy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

I figured I was mistaken but to be safe wanted to ask the question. Looking just beyond beautiful. Cant wait to see it complete underneath so I can have that picture as a screen saver.

So I didn't get everything done before the show but it was a blast and thanks to everyone that came over and shared their thoughts. Now back to it and get it finished and driving!!!

Got the exhaust on before the Phoenix event and in the tent without a drop of rain.

Thanks,

In an effort to get a running 914 to the Phoenix Club event I bypassed the cooler but it will be connected and used!!! The last few months has felt a bit unreal and really hit me when the engine went in the car

That is just stunning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) I would want to be able to drive it and when not driving it have it mounted on the wall in my home so I could appreciate the simplicity and beauty of the underside of these terrific cars.

I thought I saw a paint scratch, but it was only the lift arm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

This thing looks more and more amazing every update.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to you (you were busy as was Eric) but in walking around your car it is just simply amazing. So much so that I drove back to my shop Sunday and kicked my tires...LOL. Great job Andy....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
