A year after my ISP changed my Web page, I finally got around to updating it.
It's pretty crude as far as web design goes and I want to make it fancier......but as far as the pictures go, you can tell what I have done to the car. Thanks for looking. BTW click on the link below (My 914 Project) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Very nice car, I'm particularly jealous of your mobile car lift! I've had several occasions where that would have been golden. How did the muffler turn out? Also curious what you repacked it with. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif)

The muffler has been rewelded but still needs to be polished. I won't know what it sounds like until I get the car out of storage in about 2 months from now and put it on. It wasn't repacked with anything. I replace the tail pipe (with some sound dampening in it) with a straight SS pipe. We'll see how loud it is.

Great Job! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) You give me hope! My car is very similar in rust damage to yours.
What kind of finish did you finally decide on for the wheels? They look nice and clean and proper. I'm doing cookie cutters, but I'd like to end up with something similar. |

Wow! Fantastic Job! The car looks great! I get so jealous seeing people with that much skill (and money my wife adds... )
The web page looks great too. except on the home page I see a bunch of "<>" show up all over. I'm using Firefox 1.0 |

Nice.
Might want to fix the "website" in your Profile so that the "WWW" button at the bottom of your post works as well. |

Nice (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
One thing I would like to do to both my cars (Type 3 and 914) is strip them down, do body work, paint, and put back together. But the complete striping is intimidating. I'm fearful that I'll lose a piece or forget how to put it back together. What do you guys & gals do to mentally get yourself into striping a car? If I could just get over that hurdle (and get a bigger space to store everything (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) ) |

Just start taking parts off, put them in large ziplock bags, label them with a black felt pen, put them in a box......then take another part off. All it takes is comitment. |
