The attitude to help out here on the World is really great, but why is Andy welding the floor? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I have belonged to a few car club sites. 914World.Com is by far the best. Next closest was NSXPrime.com. All the rest pale by comparison.

Guess it's time to update this, been awhile. Haven't got a lot done....but at least it's slowly moving forward. I had the car up in the garage all bundled up for winter, so I had a friend help me do some things in the shop. Got the rest of the insulation in, the remaining lights installed, then hung some cabinets and a shelf, and got some decorations up.

My brothers have been coming over and helping me with the car. They have the rear bumper done, still working on the front bumper.

Then I finally got my bottom piece of my console back in, modified the hole for the renn shifter, then deleted the heater holes.

Chris H. sent me a 914-6 emblem a while back, finally got around to getting it installed...with a new twist. Thanks Chris!!!

Well that's it for now, my brothers will be here Monday, hopefully the front bumper will get done.

Thanks for the update Jeff! So glad to hear from you. That is EXACTLY what I had in mind for that badge. It really belonged on your car. It's looking great! Keep us posted !

Mark,
Jeff had cancer. He was diagnosed a year ago and told he had months to live. He fought it and I think building this six was part of that fight. He died last weekend...

Thanks, Rob ... I found the other thread right after seeing this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I passed through Galt on the way up and back from Cameron Park. I wanted to stop by Jeff's place, but I was already a day behind schedule.

Yesterday I spoke with Deborah, Jeff's wife. Wonderful woman and we all need to keep sending our thoughts and prayers her way. The situation reminds us that everything else is small and unimportant.

But she is selling Jeff's car and I'm currently 2nd in line. I understand the person who has first shot is from SoCal and sounds like he is supposed to commit today.

I have to believe he'll make it happen but I'm ready to go if that deal doesn't happen and I'll certainly let you all know what happens.

Again, please keep Jeff's family in your prayers.

Thanks,
Chris

The family will be in my prayers, as well as praying that the car doesnt show up on for sale for double the price in a month.

Thanks for the update

I remember we rolled his fenders trying to fit the wheels. I told Jeff to drive slowly so we could see if there was any rubbing. He hammered the gas and suddenly we were doing over 60 on the bask country roads. We got back to his driveway and there was a large paint bubble on the passenger side from the rubbing tire. He didn't care. It was the first time he had driven the car in months and one of the last times he drove the car.

Thanks Andyrew for helping that day. It was great to get him on the road again.
Godspeed Jeff. You will be missed.
