Nice work! Had to do some repair around the weather-strip channel myself. Not an easy area to fit and grind down. |

Seeing those pictures tells one why someone created the term "Hellhole". Keep on the good work! Arno |

The fab work is great! Fantastic work and love the level of commitment. This was a beautiful car to start with, looks like it is becoming both beautiful and solid!

Do you have a portable spray booth or just masking it off and hitting it right there where it sits?

For the paint I will bring it in a paint booth but for primer, I just mask it and apply where it is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) it's a 2k epoxy primer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Antoine |

Wow Antoine - that is some amazing work. That is going to be one beautiful 914 when you get if finished. Rust is a real bitch- but once you vanquish it, you should never have to deal with it again. There is a special place in Hell for people who use fiberglass to "repair" these cars. Good luck and keep up the terrific work and sharing the progress with us. We all enjoy it.

That door to the workshop, that's very cool.
914 is looking good as well. I assume a repaint is in the future? |
