Finally a chance to get in the garage and get my 914 ready for the next autocross season. This car is being built on a very tight budget. Many of the parts are being fabricated by myself. When i finish my homemade front anti-sway bar i will post a complete set of pictures of the build. In the meantime i made a lot of progress on other things. The first order of business was to groove and regrease all my badly creaking suspension bushings.
