(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I just checked my exhaust thread, that would be the one where a nice guy melted my brand new Bursch. That was the dark day when my car went on

"THE STAND"

it has now been 70 days since i have driven my 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)
I will hopefully have her up by this comming weekend. The exhaust should be on its way back and i am almost done with the sound deading project. I also changed out the pedal cluster, resealed the back window, replaced the 3 piece targa seal, started a stereo project, the list will never end

SELL YOUR JACK STANDS!!!

do not put them under your car. They always lead to bigger projects (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)


How long has it been for you guys. Lets here it....

I haven't driven it since July I got to drive it for just over 30 miles before the engine spun a bearing, before that it sat apart for twelve years damn those jack stands! Today I picked up a parts car that hopefully will have a running motor and I can get it on the road in the next thirty days. That's my goal!

At least 2 years if not more driving any teener, unless sitting the behind wheel and makng vroom vroom sounds counts.

Yesterday.

However, the "S" on the engine lid came off and while I intended to just re-attach the "S", I am now in the middle of a complete strip and paint of the engine lid. The car will be down for most of the week. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Got home just about two hours ago. Fantastic day today. Rain tomorrow, but it looks like 914 weather again on Tuesday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It has been a very long time... The only way I could remember how long was to go out to the car and check the last Inspection Sticker.

Yeah, it HAS been that long..

About 6 hours. Indeed, it feels like an eternity. But somehow I'll manage. I will be driving it into the garage in about half an hour though, maybe that'll get me through the night. =)

I'm pretty sure it was the summer of 1988. But I will be driving it again by May 19th of 2011 (45th b-day present) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
