Needs floorpans, and a general go through to see what else is up. PO had to move this weekend so he was desparate. The build starts here. |

It's funny how life get's in the way.
Thanks to a bunch of the repair threads that are 30+ pages and my admiration of the skills possessed and those that have progressed I have started my look into my 914. NOTE: This car dropped into my lap way back when. I am in no rush to finish it, but that does not mean I do not want to work on it. Adulting and Priorities suck. Southern NH in the winter sucks, especially if you do not: 1. Like the cold. I don't. 2. Don't have winter type toys, mostly due to 1. 3. Have a heated shop. See 1 again. Today it was almost 50*. We just got about 4" of snow last night so it was a bit slushy walking in and out of the shop. I started out at the trunk and took the shop vac to it and took a bunch of pics for initial inspection. I worked my way forward through each top side compartment. Then did some of the sides, longs mostly. There is a lot of not good, but there is a lot of good...I hope. I don't know if a gentle door slam is a thing, but mine are both beautiful with no top on. Gaps are ok too. Driver door gap is high above the front fender though. Unfortunately I had to stop because I had no dust masks and could not find my respirator (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . Took a bunch of pics, but here are a few:   |
