Hey guys, joined awhile ago, but this is my first post. Been working on a 914 rusto, but it has been pretty stalled out the past couple of years and I am looking to renew my motivation on the project. I am planning a week long session with some helpers in June, that should polish off the welding, then on to bodywork.

You can see most of the project here...

My Webpage

Also, there was someone near Dallas that was interested in some bumpers, but I lost the email. I am pretty sure he directed me to this forum, so if you still are looking for them, let me know!

Anyhoe, just wanted to say hello, and get some motivation!

Take it one mini project at a time. Like your doing. Break it down even further to areas of the car.

Good luck and welcome to the right place for information and encouragement.

Pick a goal and start a progress thread here. start posting photos of the new work. You will be surprised how much work you get done when you have a 1000 people bugging you. You can do it!
