Took WThF off of work and my Dad flew into town. Had another friend come in too and boy did we get a lot of work done on the 914!!
Engine and Tranny re-removed (had been bolted back in just for moving from Ohio to Texas. Engine and tranny split and engine put in the engine stand New passenger side cross member fitted and welded in. Seat hinges and ladder adjustment cleaned up, sand blasted and welded to the new floorpan (previously installed.) Front and rear trunk floors cleaned, wirebrushed, welded where necesary and primed. New patch panel fabricated and welded in to fix small area on the drivers side floor pan. New patch panels fabricated and welded in to fix the passenger side headlight bucket. Remianing floor pan tar removed and floorpan treated where necessary. Doors stripped of panels, windows etc. Lots of welds ground. Lots of beer consumed. On a side note, I ordered parts over a month ago from AA, PP and RD. The AA parts were the only ones that arrived. Took a month 3 emails and 4 phone calls to find out that PP had no plans to ship my order since they discontiued working with that supplier. Would have been nice for them to let me know. RD won't return phone calls, and no parts are here. Imagine that? But what a great weekend. Very cool. |
