Ok, it's starting, almost all the pieces are in place.
I worked Spring and Summer getting the car all in primer and finishing up the custom valances. I actually thought this time last year I was suppose to be done. Here are some photos of the car last week getting towed to the bodyshop, and pictures of how it looked this morning. Next week I will start to assemble my two and a half years of acumulated stuff back onto the car and fit the engine. I will document it with pictures as I go along. The Completed Car Photos for those who want to skip all 25 pages: http://homepage.mac.com/davidchapman1/PhotoAlbum26.html The car is going to be a beauty and a very special 3.1 twin plug turbo powered one at that. Here are the past links showing the progression and R&D it's taken over the years to get the car to this point. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...c=16348&hl= http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...rrera&st=60 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...l=turbo+carrera http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...l=turbo+carrera http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...c=8438&st=0 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Attached image(s) |

Progress report.
Because I have had to pull some late nighters to get work done on the car I haven't been able to post as I go along I am always to tired and had to many frosty's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) . This has been progressing way slower than I expected. How is it that I have parted out 4 914's over the past few years, never thrown away a nut or bolt but am constantly scrambling to find a clean one. As you can see nothing is going to be put back on the car unless it is in like new condition. I have got the front trunk pulled together now and will work my way to the back of the car. I should go faster now as most of the stuff going back in is cleaned up or new, and ready to go in. The interior progress will post next featuring my reupholstered leather interior and kick ass sound system. Attached image(s) |
