The race to RRC is on but I still have a lot to do. I plan on getting a bunch of things done this weekend.

Well I didn't get all day on the car but this weekend will have no interruptions I hope, All the tunnel work is done but the shift linkage.

Nice stuff Mr

Stunning and I like that you shrink wrapped the fuel lines too. Anything we can do to prevent friction or rubbing or rattling on these cars is worth it in my opinion. I just hope I remember all of this stuff when my car begins its assembly phase.

lots of cleaning and prepping the relay board, wipers and headlight motors and get them installed. Test fitted the oil tank and getting ready to install the master cyl. and the last of the hard lines connected.

I missing the top bracket for my engine mount if anyone has one upper right piece in the 1st photo.

Hope it all works when it gets power

got the headlight motors in and wired, now to fish the turn signal wires thru the J tube rubber. Steering column is ready and gauges are next. It's almost time for the drive train

working on the car trying to find a comfortable position in the car to work from has given me back pains. Yes I'm still working on the wiring but getting really close now. A enlarged color copy of the diagram is helping thanks to Kinko.s. Utility knife for reference.

Engine seal is in, cleaned all my ground points and installed the relay board. Need to refinish the combo gauge but plan to have a triple gauge adding temp and oil pressure installed down the road.

Nice work. If you don't already have the correct blue/grey braided hose for the master cylinder feed lines shoot me a shipping address and I will send you some. I have ~2ft of it sitting here that I will never use for anything

Thanks, I just bought 5 meters last week since I was unable to find anyone that sold anything shorter in blue German grade. I appreciate the offer!!!

I was thinking of running it all the way down to the MC but dont know yet if there is enough clearance between the tank and body?

I will buy some from you to help you recoup the cost.

I love this thread!

Andy- Once you figure out the length you will need for your car I will buy an equal length from you, if you are willing to sell some, for my Six. Thanks. Michael

Trying to find a source for the clear plastic lines so I'll only need 6 inches, Then there will be plenty to go around. If I don't find some I may have enough for 3 cars total

Sanded and polishing the window channels tonight so I can assemble the doors. Hard to get a good picture but harder getting all the anodizing and scratches out.

FYI: Those brown and Brown/white striped wires come out the front of the steering column for the horn ring hookup. Otherwise....looking GREAT!

First piece of glass in the car. I'm sure I'll have some more adjustments as I add the window mech. and glass.

Andy - What are you doing to the polished aluminum to keep it from oxidizeing?

I don't plan on letting it oxidize and I have plenty of Wenol polish if it starts to. I'd rather polish it than clear coat or anodize them

Freshly color sanded and polished. These take lots of fiddling to get adjusted. need to lower the front latch a bit and done on the drivers side.

Ohhhh Myyyyy! That is incredible.

I've never smoked, but I think I need a cigarette...

The tubing is Nylon 6 and a milky white, not clear. It jus looks somewhat clear with fluid in it. Look for it at places like McMaster Carr.

Another week toast with being on call and RRC is looking grim at this point but I'm still trying. Got the upper dash vinyl done and the dash out of the box and on the car. Still need to stretch and glue the leading edge and around the defrost vents.

Finally got my plates in and Back at it tonight and the weekend...

I found the Nylon6 tubing for the brake fluid res. and had to buy a 100' roll so I will puts some kits together with the blue hose and start a WTB thread when it gets here for those interested

Andy, I really like your plate choice. Clever.

cool project! Dash came out great

Socalandy, how do you receive a certificate of authenticity?.....I need to know ASAP:)

Thank you very kind sir. Your friend up north. - pdx

here's the link but beware, it may not be complete with all the details but should at least give you your build date and engine number.

Thank you so much!
Helps tremendously.

So not a lot of progress pics but huge progress under the dash and lights/guages Thanks to some much needed help Ron "SLITS " and Glenn From Pelican!!! we wrapped up the electrical checking every wire and testing continuity on Sat. Thanks Guys

Today I finish the leading edge tuck on the dash vinyl and bolted it in. A little brake rotor painting , hung the oil lines. wiper assembly and Yes Erc... Started blocking out my fiberglass bumpers from Getty Design so they can be painted along with the rockers next week. Thanks for the rotors PMB

Still a lot to do

Time to call Rafino for a windshield

Andy, what paint did you use on your rotors?

Dude... I have a roll here.

Looking good Chief!

VHT 1850 deg. header paint

Is this car going to a museum when finished? Auction?
Way too nice to drive!

Good move, I will do the same on mine when my car comes back from the shop. My rotors have surface rust that makes the fancy parts look ugly.

Thanks for the great compliments!!! I plan on driving it a lot and fully enjoying it for many years and 914 events. The VHT header paint held up great on my 72 rotors and keeps the rust away.

More bling from PMB installed!!! Got out to the garage after work and set the back spacing to center the calipers. Should have all the brakes done tomorrow and bleed the system

Ooo! Ahh!

Andy- Very nice. Did you grind down the trailing arm reinforcements for clearance for the GT calipers or did you space the rotor outward? My car will stay narrow-bodied so I can't afford to space the rotor outward.

Thanks, I opted for the tube style reinforcement adding the two you see in the photo so I think your referring to the stock brake adjustment tube in the swing arm? I did grind the outside tube down per Eric Shea's recom. to clearance the caliper from the swing arm. It cleared

Andy, I don't remember if your rear hubs are "hub centric" or not. If "hub centric", a 5 mm spacer under the caliper ears is necessary to center the rotor. They don't look "hub centric".

Forget it ... it's a stock six now that the grey cells have kicked in!

No problem Ron, I installed my calipers, lines,spacers and bolted the wheel on only to relize the pads didnt go in... But i did get all four corners done today

Bleeder on the bottom?

Pretty sure the bleeder and line go on the inside. If the bleeder isn't on the top, how can the air get out?
