Hip, hip, hooray! smilie_pokal.gif

Now the assembly begins. dry.gif

DanT
Yes indeed Trekkor.
Prep for TT #2.
Should have the car by Tues or Wed.
All trim goes back on, rollbar and fire ext, attach shoulder belts to fire wall instead of harness bar, headers, new hubs, brakes, reposition fuel pump, oil cooler and lines. wink.gif And I am also re-upholstering the door panels, installing RS door handles, removing the radio and underdash amplifier, speakers. removing firewall insulation on both sides and possibly upholstering the insided of the firewall with vinyl instead of behind the seat pad. Leaves more room for belts and seat movement.

Not all that much to do sad.gif huh.gif

you bet! ohmy.gif
I want to take my time with reassembly. Do a really nice neat job. Especially the door panels and behind the seats.
After everything is done then it will go to the shop for corner balance and 4 wheel alignment. And a little tweek of the FI control unit.
I forgot valve adjustment, oil change, tuna can, tune up blah blah blah.
DanT
so what is the verdict?
I have emailed pics to at least 3 folks, what do you guys think.
You going to do a Phoenix Red repaint?

You wont' be sorry...especially for a track car.

All you need is some Jagermeister graphics and you got yourself a classic racecar look! wink.gif

I'm sticking with Olympic Blue. I havent seen many track cars with that color. And its cheaper for me to go that way since my paint is in decent shape.

I really like the color of your car however.
DanT
thanks Grant,

My post actually was referring directly to the folks that had Pmd me about hi res pics. They were all considering painting their cars Phoenix.

Olympic blue with orange stripes like Greg Brauns car look great.
Gives it that Gulf Porsche look. Like this

Dan, I went to see my painter this yesterday -trouble is as these are circa 1970 colours he didn't have any paint swatches of L21E (Blutorange) or L32K -Phoenix. Would you have a Pantone reference so I could compare? -Car looks great in the pics but I'm a little worried about committing to a colour having seen it on my monitor wacko.gif
Andyrew
Im very impressed with the car! I love the color (my dad doesnt seem to care for it.. but I love it)

If possible could you send me any paint numbers you have of the color you used? brand and everything (L 32k I know wink.gif, but thats single stage, I have a qt of it.. trunks and such will be done with that)

Thanks!
tat2dphreak

tangerine?!

Looking great Dan. Those of us with Phoenix Red cars love 'em. You don't have to worry about seeing another one at most track events either.

Gonna add meatballs and numbers?

Fred
DanT
Ill post a pic of the numbers on the can if the painter still has them.
