I love these 914 gatherings......such a high rate of cars not showing up.
No worries, last year it was my turn to not be working. Joe Sharp hooked me up with a loaner (What a guy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif))

Git on it! It ran before you broke it!

Working yes, fine no. One hi beam one low beam, no two at the same time, no fog lites (minor but STILL)
SO
Update:
Fuse panel back in, Jwest flash unit installed, still only hi beams, need to get new flasher, PO wiring remove, saddly along with the stereo...
Added Volt, Oil Press and Temp gauges, new dual pole sending unit. Good thing Dr Dave couldnt get those rear SS brake lines in! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Istalled driver side carpet kit
Re routed speedo cable, it was fouling the throttle cable
R&R drivers floorboard with a rennline aliuminum jobber.
Left to do:
Grab flasher unit from FLAPs, they were able to get one in today!
Drip Drip Drip from the taco plate needs to be addressed
Ebrake handle
re install drivers seat
RainX windows, July in Pacific Northwest!
Figure out some tunes! Even I can't stand my singing for that long! (iPod shad the bed last week)

good to hear! I might have to break from the pack at the 205 intercange and go into Ptown proper. One of my "crew" down there rolled his Passat while his wife is away on vacation. He still hasn't told her. My wife as some instructions for me to pass along IN PERSON!

well the inside and topside of the motor is ready to go! Front end passed bolt check! New (used) ebrake for just in cases will stop the car
Now for the not so good
No tunes, just no time...
Rear window/backpad rattle is unstoppable with out a re install
and finially

The taco plate failed it's bolt test. 9.5lbs was never achieved; one of the holes are completely stripped out! Dho! Tacoma screw opens at 7 or 8... do they make a 6mm time sert???
Uhg! That is why you do a bolt check with that fancy pantz Snap On torque wrench I just had to have!
Just don't drink the bar dry before I get there!

Get yourself a few packs of matches and shim that bad boy. You can get them anywhere on the road. Looks funky but beats that ((((RATTLE)))).
