Custom washer fluid bottle done and in place, Vent that was needed for cowl fill, and welded fuel tube that was done by Peter Dawes many moons ago. Only on this car. Super early 911-S front brakes. We keep on moving forward.

WOW! Looks fantastic! You ARE getting super close.

We'll need to get together and go for a drive soon.

The white headlight surrounds are one of those things I didn't care for back when I purchased my first 914 and now I love them.

PMB is the master of refinishing the headlight surrounds and parts as well. As far as the pictures go, Eric is a very good photographer as you can see. Rumor is the lights in PMB are LED? That is why the pictures look so good. Great eye on Eric, great composition and great subject.

I just sent these Rebel Racing rear adjustable inserts to PMB and they got them right in number 41. Looking good!

Thank you PMB for taking care of me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)

I was going over the break in of number 41 in Sandy, UT and we have agreed that E will drive it 500 miles to break in the new engine, and change the oil and make sure that the car is as perfect as a 70 Hot Rod VW-Porsche 914 can be.

It must be nice to drive the cars you build for your customers and see just how their vision and with your guidance the product turns out.

In a season of gifts, I am happy with this gift to myself. Next to a home or building I have bought this is the most expensive item I have ever bought.

Happy birthday to me.

Bob Burton

There are lots of details on every build but the level of finish on 41 is unreal. If the part is not 100% it is refinished and a number of items that I thought where good did not meet the speck of this build.

I have seen builds on the 914world that are of a super high level. A level so high that the car looks like it was delivered to a dealer back in 1970. Well a lever higher than that.

I have seen great talent in guys that are building their vision of 914. Some are doing super pro work on their cars. My hat is off to you.

I am a patient person because my father taught me how to fish and be a patient.


I know my build blog is out of order but I hope you enjoy seeing the build from PMB
