lets see, I have until June 6th to:

put together engine, install engine and transmission, install main wiring harness (removed it completely for some unknown reason and didn't mark a single wire), change out fuel lines, install tank, install new brake lines, install dash (completly removed) or at least mount the gauges somehow, put doors back on, install windshield....etc...etc...

You help me and I will help you!

The only reason I have not regestered is I don't think I can have mine back together in time!

I only need to clean and paint the engine bay, clean the engine, install the alternator, oil return tubes, heat exchangers, muffler. Reinstall the motor, assemble the trailing arms and reinstall them! Bleed the brakes replace the oil pressure sender, align and test drive!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I am feeling your pain!!

cool.....I just made a deal with work to take Friday off to be able to spend some extra time wrenching on my car...now I have to figure out how to get the car from the street into my garage...this ought to be fun if I cannot get a hold of any of my nieghbors (you'd think they'd want to get the eyesore off the street, hahahahaha)

the hardest thing now is making sure the wife lets me work on the car and not harrass me too much (she works from home and is easily distracted when I'm home, with me being such good looking and all, LOL)

anyone want to come over to show me how to use the on button on my tools??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I gave up my grand scheme of having a bitch'n and detailed 914.....well, at least for a while, I guess I can get anal and masterful later on down the road, right now I just want a good running 914...

Lately I have thought of 914 ownership like the Blues...there will always be someone with a sadder condition 914 than my own which will make me feel better about my own car.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Do you live on a hill? I can stop by and help you push it into the garage if you want!

Hey Jeff,

name a time next week and I'll bring my garage clothes and we can do some wrenching on your car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

no big deal on getting my car into the garage, if all else fails I could use my 911 to push the 914 up the driveway....no harm should come from it since the 914 has those lovely bumper tits to protect it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Things are heating up prior to the event. Lots of people scrambling to get cars done. Lots of cars being brought in for service.. lots of parts being sold.

If I can be of any help.. you know I'll be there.

Oh Paaaaaaaaaa-Leaaaaase! We've seen your wife. The only reason she'd harass you is to get you out of the house so the "real" good looking guys can come over!

Ha! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)
