This is even more impressive when you are actually working in the same areas. Wow!

Just downloaded all the photos of the wire harness install as a reference, back into the garage for me.

Have to take advantage when its under 90 degrees to get some work done.

This should be considered for classic thread. It really helps people that are redoing a 914's bits and pieces that take up a lot of time.

Finished up most of the front trunk and the lights. I think I will leave the car up on stands and do all the brake bleeding before I put the engine in.

Thanks for looking !! And the compliments.

I just love the look of a car during the reassembly process.
There is something about the clean look and all the parts being assembled in a neat and methodical way. I feel this is definitely that it is more about the journey The completed car hides so much work.
The car is looking great. What are you going to do about the bottom of the car? Are you going to leave it clean? or are you going to protect it with some kind of undercoating?

Great Job simonjb.
Bill.

this is an awesome build! looks super, definitely have to book mark this for reference on my own build. this is a 9.75/10 and concourse worthy, not sure if that is what you are after but could if you wanted. When are you installing the motor, this week?

Thanks everyone. Somehow just getting it up on the lift and off the floor seems like a great big step forward. Looking up from underneath is so nice. I bled the brakes and now it’s ready for the engine. I’m not a concours person, but I am trying to keep it as stock as possible.

I need to find a thread on trying to align the front suspension as much as possible - my main question is how to set the front upright struts/shocks correctly?

It’s finally stopped raining here so I’m going to be doing yard work for a few days...
