So Andy, is there any small stuff you are still hunting down we can help you find?

Very nice buddy, can't wait to see this car done! There are many pictures missing from this thread... so let me help you.

Wow, Thanks for the offer Ferg!!! I can only imagine what crazy good parts you would have in your stash. I'll let you know when I do

Time for some building to take place...

Here's some more pictures to show how great the body and paint came out from Kent's shop. He will do my car next

Looks amazing! Something about yellow looks so good on a teener.

More work on the harness, Out with the original one that was cut to hell and missing the whole rear section. Cleaning the used one I got from Proto31. Thanks Dan!!! Some crimp connectors that will be removed for solder and shrink treatment,

A shot of the dash assembly, I will only be repainting the top and face to and stay clear of the chassis #.

before and after cleaning and new wrapping. This is time consuming

New body harnesses are available but they are not cheap.

Very nice and I love the chassis number shot

well I finally got a compliance decal done for my car and the first thing to go on the car since it came home. Still working on cleaning up the harness and dash assembly

still working on the dash assembly and got the front hood on the car and gap'd today so it's out of harms way. I have the the front and rear lights ready to install once the harness goes in.

I am so jealous.

Been busy with work but more progress on the harness and installed the sail vinyl and ready for trim. I'll post pics when the trim is all on. A few more part arrived thanks to Jeff Hines and Aase Sales. Time to get cracking!!!

Ooooo you got that mirror. I'd been eyeing that for a while now. Decent price considering.

Thanks PMB!!! These lines are sweeeeeeet And I had to pull the trigger on these Koni's

Hey Eric,
I think I have one of those mirror's??? What's special about mirror's???
Tom

BTW Andy: Beautiful build & keep those photo's coming.

TJB/914 check the part #

That's the '6' mirror, slightly smaller than the '4' and really hard to find as NOS...

Keep up the good work Andy!!

it is an early mirror and smaller top to bottom from later versions and was in -6 cars, not sure about MY 71 and 72 -6 cars? but someone here will

I'm pretty sure it's the same as the one on my '71 - Definately smaller than the one that I took of my '75

Are the black pre-bent lines Stainless?

PMB has it all !!! these are Green coated steel in the original finish for all 914's through 1976. These also come in tin coated lines for a budget repair and stainless steel for those who never want to do this job again. Pre-bent for every corner of your 914

Andy has the factory green coated lines. All 914's had them. They are actually more expensive than the stainless steel lines because the material isn't as readily available. OM steel (tin coated steel) is the least expensive and Stainless is the mid-priced line.

We're still waiting on the right front line from the MC and the later front caliper lines

Sweet! I see you have a page on your site to order now!
Thank You Eric!

What does it say about me when I find the picture of Andy's brake line set-up from Eric more exiting than the pictures on the Hot Chicks thread?

I know..... I was thinking the same thing. I know I need brake lines for my project and now I know where to get them. Thanks for having these Eric.

well I still need to install the trim but here are some pics of the sail vinyl install. I also had the gas tank cleaned and red coated and its in metal etching primer now.

More this weekend

Nice to add some more black to balance out all the yellow

Got a picture inside the tank so you can see the Red-Kote sealant for those thinking about going this route.

Andy- Your car is looking very very nice. I am happy to see the sail panel vinyl on it. It really is a great look on these cars.

started putting on the sail trim. Tomorrow I will polish the center bar so I can get it all on. I plan on getting the dash frame installed as well.

Just like your last car.....amazing Andy. Nice work!

Awesome work Andy !!! Very, very nice work.....

Thanks Guy's

3 hours of sanding and buffing and now the battered center trim piece is done. Started with 320 to remove deep scratches and some small dings, then 500 and 800 before the compound and final buff. Now where did I put those clips

No really, I have 3 of the center trim pieces and none of them had the clips

Anyone have a set for sale?? Checked Pelican and the other usual sites but nothing. Thks

Thanks to Bruce Stone for finding the part number and they are availible from pelican parts

With the P/N it comes up in the part search

http://www.pelicanparts.com/PartsLookup/HT...10-00-print.htm

Still waiting for the clips but Ron and Glenn came thru for me and got a few more things for reassembly.

Prepping the dash frame it looks like my car was given a name. I think is says Hillary what do you guys see. Acetone not only got all the adhesive off with ease it took off all the black paint down to the primer.

Time to start feeding in some wire

I'm really happy with my new 914-6 blueprint art I picked up this weekend yes its old and comes with some patina and its time to get it on the wall. I'm thinking the living room but Karen will most likely have it end up in my office

Sweetness!!! I see lots of Yellow there buddy, just the way I's likes it!!! Great job.

You're not going to finish this car before mine this time around, YOU'RE NOT, NOT, NOT!!!

There has been some prior discussion about the name written on the dash frame. The color in German IIRC...

Looking fantastic Andy!

Not seen that thread and will search for it but Zitronengelb is German for Canary yellow I think

Zitron = Lemon
Gelb = Yellow

Well I found an amazing set of heat exchangers after buying a few plus the set that came with the car. First pics is what came with the car and will be selling off. Repairable but rough with prior patch work

Now for the new err set. I'm thinking of having them ceramic coated to protect them anyone done it or have a better option? Thks

... Do they have to split the clam shells to blast prior to ceramic coat?

Might check with Marty at MSDS about who he uses for coating.
Good score on the exchangers, wish I knew of a good set, so I just went with headers

Took a break from the harness repair and worked on the light buckets. I'm going to try and wrap up the harness tomorrow and start feeding it in.

Also Got the gas tank painted today and made some felt pads. Fitted pedals Thanks Bruce!!!
