 Hi everybody from Norway.I'm starting a new project here as I found the remains of a 914 for 300 usd.It was cut into three parts to make it easier to bring it to the scrap yard.I lost my job,so I have plenty of time and less money. This car has nearly nothing left of the outside body panels,so I feel free to make some fun out of it.There is very much structural rust to fix first and thanks to Brians Machine Service I have a 911 roof I want to weld on top of the 914 chassis. This is a long term project I want to shear with you.I have a plan.... Lets put on some good music in the workshop and start up the welding machine. |
