That turned out great! I'm a bit jealous as my 914 is still at the paint shop. It's always a good day when a 914 comes back with nice, shinny paint!

LOL. That looks like my six in my garage! Only difference is my hood sits against the wall and my trunk is installed.

I have been working on the car a little more lately. I got side tracked after buying a race car back in Sept. of '22. Spent some time fixing it up so my daughter and I could do some autocrossing together. But I am back on the 9146 and making pretty good progress. Plan is to have done by the end of the year.

Well almost a year later and the engine is done and in the car. Pushing hard to have it done for Okteenerfest. Hope to have all the wiring tested this week so I can start the engine this weekend.

Sweet progress and great story.

Never give up, and I'll bet more than a few of us are envious

Thanks for the encouraging words. Getting the engine in was a big step forward. I put a picture together of what the engine bay looked like when we got it to today.

It's alive. Still needs timing and the carbs adjusted but runs great!
