(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I installed my new Bursch muffler, and went for a drive to test it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Sounds a little quieter.

JP (johnpierre) came by for some minor stuff. We changed out his vacuum hoses and readjusted the idle speed.

He left happy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I removed the famous Bat Wing spoiler from the 'BB'. Need to fill the holes it left behind (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

... and did some general clean up around the shop (IMG:style_emoticons/default/FERG.gif)


Will be swapping the engine in the '66 912 fairly soon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ... This one actually runs great, just leaks oil from the flywheel main seal and needs general clean up. New heads 10k miles ago, but that was 28 years ago.

I finished the front bearing, rotors, and calipers. I installed my reupholstered seats and new empi interior light from Pelican.

I also put a final coat of poly on my new corn hole boards.

I usually use a floor jack to change my wheels ... I'll have to try Phil's method sometime (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Cool barn find. Driving with flip flops is a big no-no in my book....especially in a manual. I know of several wrecks at the coast caused by people getting their flip-flops hung up on the pedals.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That is a NICE car! The flares look staggered a bit. Very aggressive look. Love the color. What is that, metallic green?
