My calendar says its Tomorrow Already

First coat but its a cell phone picture

Far out Andy! Looks awesome. I'm looking forward to seeing parts installations!

Finally color! I want more

I passed on reading this thread some time ago, because it was lengthy.

Today was my brithday, and treated like royalty all day, so I started at the beginning and have been mesmerized to this very point!

Most of you know that I am an asshole purist, but that ends with this six. It's been built the way one would be built today. The craftsmanship is truely remarkable. The focus, from the beginning, is really inspiring. Devotion to the focal point is unreal, yet Andy is more than willing to get the input of experts.

From the early search for correct NOS parts to now, the final paint, is impressive. We all know that this is a no cost spared resto of what many would have junked years ago. It'll be worth its wieght in gold when finished.

The metalwork is next to none.

Extreme job Andy! I love it, but it should be red.
Pat

one more cell pic and nikon shots in a bit. the color in these photos is off due to yellow overload

There is no such thing.

The car looks great Andy. Can't wait to see it go back together! Good seeing you today in Anaheim.

It is a much sweeter shade then Wills or Shea's Nice , I think my 70 is the same shade

Andy good to see you today at the show. The car is looking great!! I love Yellow on 914's!!

Your future is so bright

real pictures

Kent`s work is Awesome!!!

Those pics look fantastic! What color yellow is that?

Andy,

I just read through the whole thread yesterday. Comparing the pictures of the car at the beginning to now, it's amazing how far this car has come along. Excellent attention to detail and such dedication. You and Kent should both be very proud and happy with the results. I had to show this thread to my wife, especially the pictures of what you started with. She then sat down and read the entire thread. The 3 of us met in Ouray and chatted briefly (looking over your car) the morning everybody pulled out of town. We're looking forward to watching it all come together!

Thanks!

From the beginning to now is one helluva transformation!! I love the color. Tell Pat to kiss your I do understand why some would think original is best but so few are left original at this point. One day I hope to find a good survivor and take it back to original but until then Rock on! It looks great!

OMG!!!

I second "OMG" beautiful work.

Andy, now everyone will paint their 914 YELLOW and ruin the yellow market. Wait till you take it outside in the sunlight, every bug in the area will think it's a flower. Bugs like fresh paint.

Tom

Looks tasty.

You've come a long way Andy. Nice work! Looks like you'll make Red Rock's this year.

Thanks everyone!!!!!!

This was a big weekend for the car. After paint cure time the color sanding and polish will happen and back home for assembly I cant thank Kent from Auto Art Customs enough for all his efforts to get the car to this point and prep the car to get it back into #29 Canary yellow again the way it left the factory.

Again, Thanks from Kent and I for the great comments.

I'm thinking it should be white. LOL.
Had to skip to the end .............. I'm only on page 11.

Got to hang out with the Erc's from PMB performance and got my incredible rear calipers in GT spec.

These will get me into the corners, The flat six will get me out Thanks guy`s!!!

Beautiful Andy! Damn it was worth the wait . That is going to be just incredible. Can't wait to see the reassembly now

I think we are living this resto vicariously through you! Looking amazing !!

Wow, doesn't get any better than that !

That is really amazing. with the above compliments. Well done so far! Can't wait to see it finished!

nice sunny day

I hope you meant this with tongue-in-cheek. I gave plaudits to the entire undertaking & believe it one of the most fantastic sixes out there. I am merely partial to Bahia Red.
Pat

If this was Pat's car I'm sure he would do one of two things, sell it for a red one or give in and paint it factory Canary yellow. I'm beginning to wonder if my love for Yellow has you guy's thinking it wasn't yellow originally but it was.

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

I wanna see it painted black, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah

Hmm, hmm, hmm...

MICK JAGGER & KEITH RICHARDS
