between Jeff's great skill and years of 914 hands on and our many rust repair panels we make, any rusty 914 can be saved

Great work! Thanks for saving the worn-out 914s and getting them back on the road!

Progress is slow as we have to fit these kind of repairs in between the quick in and out. However as you can see in the pictures, even though we are replacing the outer suspension wall and jack post as well as part of the inner wheelhouse, we are NOT cutting the quarter panel away for access, just spacing it a bit. It is critically important NOT to cut the quarter panel as it is impossibly hard to weld that thin piece of sheetmetal back on without distorting it and requiring a lot of body work
