I realized that the thread I had started originally was mostly my introduction to the site, so I ignored it, so here's my build thread. Pics to come.

This is basically the car when I first got it, minus the layers, upon layers......upon layers of paint.

Ok, as of right now, this is currently my car as is, please, comments welcome!

Today (10.11.08) painted the wall underneath the dash, the dash mount, and the glovebox....

Before.....
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068745.1.jpg)

After....
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068745.2.jpg)



After that, moved onto the dash-mount...
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068745.3.jpg)



While I was at it, I taped off and hit up the Fuel Tank...
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068745.4.jpg)
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068746.5.jpg)



And since I did that, I thought I might as well hit up the wiper assembly...
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068746.6.jpg)



While doing that, my front Valiance arrived! Yay eBay!
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i16.photobucket.com-179-1446068746.7.jpg)



And to end on a high note, I found the 5 lugs, and the 6 steering wheel my Dad had stored away....

Well, did´nt get much done today, Homework to do and such.

Further cleaned all the old goo off the dash.
Pulled more of the 911 suspension out.
Cleaned off the motor for the wipers.

Tomorrow I´ll be digging out the headlamps and mounts and cleaning and installing them.

That can't be a real 914, it doesn't have enough rust on it!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Seriously, that is looking good, should be an excellent car when you are done.

Roll the fender lips under now, before you start the finishing process. If your not sure what I'm talking about, check my threads. I took some pictures and posted a thread on this subject a few months ago.

Didn't end up getting much done this weekend with the car. All I was able to do was spend about an hour cleaning the Wiper motor and cleaning the old glue of the dash mount and such.
