need to change the hand brake indicator switch...easy enough...only it's going to be about 95 degrees in the driveway when I get out there to do it.
...then cool off with a long drive around all the back roads of Bergen County (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Any Nothern Jersey teeners reading this are welcome to join in...then stop back for a burger at my place.

I wish I could start working on mine, but I have to finish puting a sprinkler system and grass in my yard before my HOA fines me. And even when I finish my sprinklers I have to finish puting a new exhaust manifold on my Jeep Grand Cherokee and when that is done I have to fix the transmission, driveline, and ground noise in my '98 m3. Only then can I start removing a crinkled fender from my '73.

I have a commitment from my body shop friend to put the paint on next week, I will be hard at it cleaning up the engine bay and still a little more work in the rear trunk before I can etch prime..
The surprise is I found zero rust anywhere in the trunks or floor pans.

Sanding sanding sanding...

Too hot to to paint color (paint is mixed for 85 - maybe some evening this week) but everything it getting smooth and ready.

I may put another coat of epoxy on a few places today, and tempt fate by trying color in the trunks. We shall see.

Easy day.

Replace fuel filter; cram filter & pump back into place; secure cover plate; close hood; reattach car cover.

Found the fuel filters for a couple bucks each at ForeignAutotiveParts.com. I picked up 3. Pelican has them listed as NLA. Porsche dealer couldn’t be bothered. Volkswagen was out of stock at about 10 bucks each. Started to get nervous when I first saw NLA. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

yesterday i popped my fuel guage sending unit out of my gas tank - it seemed stuck at first but them freed up - i put it back in but gas guage still reads at full - darn.

i also tried to install new recently bought set of front struts only to find out they were not for 914 but were for 911 - darn again. it currently handles like a yacht.

did drive it for about an hour today though with my son - even made a stop at the supermarket on the way back.

i need to drop the engine - i need to easy out my sheared at top of block oil pressure sender and replace with a new one - i also need to press a head vent breather tube on one side - and run the three lines as everytime i make a tunr i get a cloud of smoke behind my car : (

brakes - hum - rotors and pads are in order - and a bleed.
