Michael,
It looks great. Andy and Kent are working quickly. How long before it moves to the assembly house? In anticipation, I’m trying to get my trailer emptied, but the contractor is dragging his ass.

Thanks Lawrence- you are correct.

Hi Dave- I really appreciate that. I believe as soon as we get some wheels on it, it is going to Jim's. I am hoping w/in 2 weeks.

Right now we are dealing with a front strut issue. I bought a set of '79 SC struts for the larger 3.5" early S calipers and then had the spindles raised by about 17mm. I also bought a set of Bilstein inserts for the front struts and apparently they do not fit. The Justice League is presently trying to sort that. I am hoping when I bought the struts they just shipped me inserts for a stock 914-6 and sort of lost the part of the conversation that I had switched to SC struts. If we can sort that, it will be a roller very soon. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

God bless you Michael. You deserve to enjoy it to the max. Drive it hard, wipe the rubber specs off the rear panels, and drive on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

We do not. As the build moves along we will keep pictures posted. I would like to get it back home by this summer. I am pretty excited about seeing parts go on. I believe the wiring harness, fuel and brake lines may go in this weekend. I have an NOS Six wiring harness so that should not present any problems. I also have Tangerine Racing SS fuel lines and a complete set of new green brake lines from PMB as well as a new 19mm master cylinder and restored proportioning valve.

@Cairo94507
What struts do you have ? Bilstein or Boge?
Strut inserts should be the same for 911 and 914 up to March of 1983. The struts then changed from internal to external thread.
What exact part number insert did you get ?

Just ordered the sail panel vinyl set from Mark (914Rubber.com). I really think that is one of the defining features of our cars and can't wait to see it on the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Yes! Omitting it and painting the sails dramatically changes the look of these cars.
