Like an idiot, I welded new floor pans and stiffening kits on my 914 while it was upside down on a rotisserie and also unbraced. Lessons were learned, and the positive door gaps are a constant reminder.
I was thinking about taking out the seats and use a forklift with extended forks to fork down to fix this problem, but was pointed out from a friend that fork lifts don't push down. Can this Celette bench fix this nightmare, and how much would you estimate this to cost? |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) I need to make a drive up sometime and maybe we can have a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) & (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) or two and Founders. I'm a beer snob (according to my friends) and need to make a run when they release KBS. Absolutely! Come by anytime. Now that I'm finally feeling settled in MI, we gotta get the 'local' guys together this summer.Is "real" spelled with dollar signs? $$$$ Lotsa dollar signs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)Can this Celette bench fix this nightmare, and how much would you estimate this to cost? Absolutely. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Lots of variables that could change the price depending on how much work needs to be done, and how the car arrives. Without inspecting the car and the 'damage' in person it could range anywhere... From: dropping the motor and the complete suspension and the removing the stiffening kit, then pulling/pushing where necessary and reinstalling a new stiffening kit To: Just dropping the front struts and rear shocks, cutting a relief in the long and then rewelding (and reinforcing) that cut in the correct place. I also made a set of these door jigs awhile back which really help out. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-104-1146079118.jpg) |
