20 min away with a nice car to start with. There is not one single thing that we can not do to that car: engine, tranz, fuel, brakes, suspension, steering, wiring, environmental controls, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I think I will be able to save you lots of time and $$ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)


Good on ya Doc! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Hey - how's the Residency going? ... which hospital was that - McGee?

Hopefully you found a nice place with good garage space! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

I got all those signs off a guy on Craigslist and a couple of traffic lights. I hung slatwall over my drywall so I am able to move the signs around as needed. That was the project I finished right before the 914 showed up!

thanks. Bud

Dr. Evil is coming tonight so I should have a little more info to share tomorrow.

There's 62k miles on the odometer and the PO told me that the odometer was working when it was put away.

There were a few extra parts and books on the passenger side floor. Once I removed those parts I realized there isn't any carpet on that side. The metal is black and so clean that I never noticed it wasn't carpet!

I'm anxious to get Mike's opinion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Lot's done to the car this past weekend. Gas tank was dry and fairly clean. No mice or evidence of any other small animals. SS heat exchangers was a nice surprise. Still waiting on a COA to confirm the suspicions that this may be a bumblebee.

I didn't take any pics of Dr. Evil but here is proof that he paid me a visit.

Time to get busy cleaning and making a shopping list.

oops, almost forgot the paint code pic....

> I'm looking for suggestions as to where to start.

First thing I'd do is check the spare tire pressure to make sure your windshield washer squirter works properly.

Too Late - the spare tire and washer tank are two of the fews things that I got to remove before the Evil One got his hands on the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Send you engine cooling tin and intake runners and intake air plenum and assorted bits to the powdercoater for a great new factory finish!
