This morning I had a fine, running 914...
now. (IMG:http://www.914resources.com/pics/914n6-01172005.jpg) On my list: make 'glass dash, make 'glass front trunk divider, install climate control system, strip & por15 engine bay, make & mount battery tray ON OTHER SIDE OF BAY, rewire bay, rewire & finish new engine harness, and misc rewire of fuse box & relays. If productivity is my friend... make intake manifold, make headers & new cross pipe. Looking to be the best 3 months of my life (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/w00t.gif) |

Well, this weekend I crossed off the battery tray. And I simultaneously added and subtracted the hell hole repair as well. In the process of replacing the battery tray I discovered that a small section of the inner wheel house rusted through at the hell hole location. So I welded that up and took the paint off everything else and POR-25'd it.
The optima battery is really solid in there now on a brand new tray. Anyone ever do the front sway bar install without removing the fuel tank? Tony |

Wow Chris. Let me know if you need some help. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) You should have called sooner. I am much better at taking things apart than I am at putting them back together again. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) |

Unfortunately Doris and I will not be at the WCC to defend our TTOD Auto-X title. Wait a minute....there is not Auto-X at this year's WCC....so we still have the title (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
Our new car won't be ready. It looks like May or June before we take it for it's maiden voyage. Someone should post pics daily for us junkies. Bill P. |
