HOW did you put the Karmann tag back on (and take it off for that matter)? Did you silk-screen it, or was it in that condition when you took it off? Looks fantastic!

This is one of my all-time favorite threads. Great work, Andy!!!

My karman tag has no black paint left on it!

The tag is held on by spiral pins and can be pushed out from behind going thru the access holes where the speaker goes. reused the original pins to reinstall.

Looking back at my pictures and thought I'd show the stages of progress

Unbelievable transformation!

Andy, you and Kent have done a great job of bringing this car back to life. Keep going its almost done.John

Wow...amazing!

I'm very impressed with the results. Congrats.

Just WOW is all I can say. You saved one for all of us. That car and color is just incredible. I can't wait to see more as it comes together. A first class job

Andy I never driven in a 6........I need a ride dude when your all done

Beautiful job Andy! So much for factory runs. Is the Karman tag new? Looks perfect!

I am inspired!!!

Time for me to get a project car...

Awesome...

John

Do you have a d-jectronic pressure sensor?

Nice

Replied to your thread...

Front section color sanded and polished

Andy the car is looking great, one of these days I would love to check it out. Perhaps before an Angels game this season.

DANG!... thats gonna be kick ass

I saw this car in person today and this car is Kick-a!@ already. What a transformation this project has done... amazing progress.

Looking forward to "Final-Assembly"... and lots of these

Rock-on Buddy!!

one more pass with 2000 and polish. Thanks again to Kent for finishing the front fender so I could see the end result early. This weekend should wrap it up and then home

Gonna be amazing!

(already is)

Beautiful, Andy. Can't wait for the assembly pics!

So the body is color sanded and had its first cut polish with a final polish to finish it off. Finished the suspension with the coils over kit and springs and installed the torsion bars.

time to get a trailer and get it home next weekend

slick

Bitchin!

When's the build party?

The paint is unbelievable.

Andy,

This is a great thread, thanks for sharing it with all of us. Are you using 140 lb rear springs? Can you tell me about your adjustable perches & Bilsteins; I would love to duplicate on my six.

Andy,

They are 140lbs Eibach springs and Rebel Racing's Adj. perches. The bilsteins are the Sports and had them on my 72 and liked them!!

I decided on the 140's from others that have been down this same path and found the 180's made for a terrible ride. Easy install

Another great job by Al Reed Polishing and sorry about your mishap...

Doors back on and it's almost a complete 914 roller

I have a great PORSCHE side script in Green...............JK

The big trailer ride home happened today Time to start getting it back together

Looks great! I know the feeling, brought mine home like that in the fall. Good luck with the build!

Looks great Andy. Hurry, September is coming fast!

Bill, love those tires.

Milestone day

Very Nice!

That looks awesome !!!! Keep those pix coming, we're right behind
you

Now that's nice body work !

I don't EVER want paint that good, that perfect. And since I'm doing it myself, there isn't much chance of that happening anyway. Fantastic Andy.

Thanks!!!

This is my dream car come true and wanted nothing but the best I could give it. Thanks to the members here and Kent!!! I'm so happy with whats been accomplished. I don't own a trailer..... Yet but this car will be driven often when it's done and know that you "Elliot" will put a well placed hand print on her at every stop we make at a R66 or Red Rocks event.

I'm ready

Andy, we can take shifts in the parking lot and be on "Elliot Watch".
