....today was a great start to something that could become habit forming. We have been granted access to a shop for Saturday/Sunday wrenching get-togethers. Hopefully this could be a monthly happening.

Chef's car spent most of the day on the lift....once we finished the valves, replaced the fuel pump....

Last but not least...my wounded 914 watched on the side lines. We're all thinking winter "group" project, getting it back on the road.

Dam wish I knew I would have came down. I need to do header wrap and just don't feel like laying on my back in the driveway. A lift would be nice.

Guys got to let me know!!!

Where was this anyways?

What a good time! - Thanks Ray & Chef for organizing. Lots of good things can come out of that space. I've never had access to a lift before so that is quite a treat.

The green monster is def going to have to be put back on the road - especially after looking at the work you did on the longs and the undercarriage. I wish my shell was as solid as that... Hell, a new RF quarter panel, new rear and new rear deck lid and that thing is back to the paint shop!!!

Here's another pic of Chef implementing his newfound valve adjusting knowledge...

Chef - Any probs getting home from where we split off?
