is the tank sitting too high or did you forget to plug in the sending unit before you bolted everything up? do you need a temp rear lense?

I think the tank is in the right spot but it could use to go down just a bit farther if possible I dont think the trunk lid is hitting it though! I just need to ajust the hood better its super touchy..I just forgot to plug the darn sending unit in
easy fix just takes time....yes if i can borrow one for the left side that would be good..Im think`n of getting the ones from camp.Started putting the interior back in last night ....got oil in and fuel and batt its ready to start just ran out of time last nite and it got cold in the shop(insert cold smiley)....give my a ring after 530 Kevin i will come and get it or you can drop it off , dont matter ...heck i just mite make it to AX..... :poke:MYSELF GET-R-DONE

I'm thinking its too late in the day to coordinate a teener Tuesday party. I won't want to do it on St Patty's Day anyways. You can't trust drunks with sawsalls. I have a nice air saw I got from HF that we can use to make these tires fit.

Well the XXX was a good time. 'Course NONE of you all would likely know since only ONE 914 showed-up. . . (I wonder who that was. . .)
Tons of cars, good food and no rain. . . It sprinkled a bit on my ride home, but I checked it out; the wipers wiped and my 914 DIDN'T MELT. . . It even thanked me for the high-speed exercise
I hope to see
more someone at the next get together

DAMNIT! I completely spaced it.
It was too nice Saturday, so I ended up driving down to pay Rich a visit. Sunday I got mired up in the Mustang since I slacked off on Saturday. Getting the brakes and wheel bearings up to snuff for next weekend's IRDC track day at Bremerton. Evidently the Mustang thinks it's a 914, as it is completly in the air on jackstands since yesterday afternoon. It's spent more time on jackstands than my teener has (so far).

Let me find the link. Deadline is coming up, but you can probably send Steve an email and as long as you get the registration form and check in the mail today, you will probably be ok. Otherwise you should be able to sign up that morning, as long as there are spots available.
