Well, Admins? Garage or do I have to put it in the sandbox?

Here is the thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=138487

That's a LWB car, meaning it's NOT "early". HA! It doesn't even have carburetors!

Just 'cause you're local doesn't mean you get a pass ..........................

The Cap'n

The Bird.

Let it begin

Go to Pelican Parts. (Just don't tell them who you are).

What year?? 68-69?

I post over there once in a while but no mention of GPR, EVER.

Title corrected, ya old fart!

It's a 73 non sunroof CIS car. It will be an ugly duckling build, just not as UGLY as the first picture.

And you want freebies??

Here is the inspiration, even though it is a propper early car! Those are pictures I personally took in Morro Bay down by the marina.

No, no, no, you must have misunderstood. I said do it right here where I can follow along and enjoy the progress and if anyone doesn't like it just give them the bird like this

Oh Freaking YA! I want to see how this goes! I want one next!
SW

Www.early911sregistry.org would love to see it.

That said, so would we. If you would talk about it in your "garage" you can talk about it in ours.

Jonathan,
I would have sold you this one for cheap. I painted this one pearl white and did a mild restoration on it.
Mark

There's one for sale in Maryland too. I know the owner quite well.

I wouldn't mind watching a build on this at all.

Eric, you are . I will start tonight or tomorrow. Keep your eyes pealed. And remember, most of the time even though I took it apart, I couldn't put it back together for the last jelly donut on earth! I am going to need help on this one.

After going through an almost completed restoration on my dad's 69 911S , AND as any of these cars make good donor cars for the 914s , I'd love to see it unfold.

I have one of those!


I'll get to work on it some time...

I am not a big fan of early S.

Pelican has MANY documented builds like the one you are about to do. And MANY helpful and knowledgeable people to help you along the way. Plus a pretty good classified section to help gather parts.

I dont spend a lot of time here, but it seems there are a lot of people here who are also familar with the 911s.

IMO I dont really care where you document the build, as long as you document it. Gives me inspiration to get away from the computer and finish up my projects.

Looks like you have some work ahead of you. Should be a good time, if you like breathing in hot metal shards as you cut out the rusty metal! Oh wow, now I am getting excited.

What are your plans? Stock? Slightly modified? 3.6?

BTW, LOVE the look of the steelies on the Ts.

Of course you should document it here Jonathan ... you're family

I need some inspiration anyway. I've got three SWB cars to restore ... well at least two need restored ...

... the remaining one just needs a little pan repair and an engine swap to become a daily driver again
