I have a long steep driveway but the doc convinced me to bag 1st. He said that's what all the real men and 930's have. I guess I just have to race it like a hill climb. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)


I also didn't feel like spending the extra 400+ for new 1st gear parts.


And I get to use a cool 4 speed shift knob.


Aw man, I didnt know that. You are so boned with the gears that I put in there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Does malpractice insurance cover tranny rebuilds? Maybe you could claim it was a transgender operation gone bad versus a transaxle operation gone bad. They might not catch it!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

While the site was down I blasted, painted and rebuilt everything. I'll get pics up in a few days. Looks great, took a LOT of work and parts, though. That original 914/6 gear box had some hard miles on it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Thanks Doc. I thought it was pristine inside when you first opened it. Oh well; so long as it is all good now. Can't wait to see the pictures (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Thanks, Michael
(PS it is going to Scotty's shop, right?)

I would have pics now, but I am currently in the hospital on call. Tomorrow I am post call and can snap some pics.

This will be taken to Scotty, likely with Bozo's and Shoe's. Easier to drive them there and not ship them.

Here are some almost done pics. All that is needed now is to clean, paint and rebuild the shifter console.
