aaaaaaahahhhhhhhhh! No pressure.

I only have to:

Get a windshield
paint the bumpers
paint the rockers
paint the rear valence
finish the interior
powder coat the wheels
buy tires
finish a bunch of detail work
get the car aligned

and possibly find other-than-carbon fiber decks and get them painted.

I'm working on it and I will be there.

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?

probably, but it can't imagine how much more difficult that would be! take out the tank, it only takes about 20 minutes...

Wow Chris. That looks like a mess. That is gonna look great when you finish.

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.

Well, this past weekend I crossed off some more items from my list...

Installed front sway bar
Replaced stock sagging springs with 140 lb springs
Replaced shocks with KillYourBacks from my previous 914
Replaced front brake pads
Replaced front brake lines
Replaced tie rod ends
New rubber lines for the gas tank

Still have to get rid of the oil leak which means new valve cover gaskets and pushrod tube o-rings.
