We had nice weather today after rain yesterday in El Dorado Hills, CA. I installed 4 new plastic rollers on the driver's side window; adjusted the new weatherstripping around the driver's window so it "seals" better; replaced the door lock mechanism in the driver's door so it locks with the key and stays locked when the outside handle is pulled a few times (it previously would unlock itself after pulling the outside handle a few times!); remounted the driver's side rear view mirror so it is solid and doesn't vibrate when on the road. This old 1970 Porche 914 is getting there! Certainly runs great after the rebuilding the engine. Now I just need to clean up and mount the used Bursch exhaust I found.

I thought I'd share the unique PO temporary clutch tube firewall repair on Mike's car (Warpig).
 Super In Law and I are designing a temporary firewall repair kit. Here's the first version of the weld in plate. We're also going to create a copper or aluminum sleeve to slide in the clutch while we're doing the welding, The plate will get a washer to weld to the tube for a stabilizer.  More to come later ................. |

When I had to replace my clutch cable, I found that the tube must have broken away from the bulkhead inside of the tunnel, although the tube appears normal at the engine bay's side of the bulkhead.
There is a dent in the center of the floor pan just forward of the bulkhead, so I'm suspecting that a PO ran over something (parking lot tire stop or something) that may have sheared off the tube (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I installed Wilwood M/C & slave cylinders and threaded a hydraulic hose through the bulkhead, so I'm not too concerned about it, but maybe I'll cut that section of the floor pan out to investigate/repair some day, just to see what happened anyway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Mark stopped by a couple times so we could finalize the hoses and clamps on the new master cylinder. On the last trip out he brought me the first pieces on the frunk channel pieces that I asked them to create. Nice ................
  Don't ask me about the $$ numbers. The only number I know is that they'll come in 3' 4" sections. |

Looking good ,L20e? Mine is the same colour, it's a satisfying moment when the paint goes on. My garage is 5m long & 2.3m wide, small garages make some jobs twice as difficult. Still fun though.
