hello all, My name is Anthony and I am just returning from Iraq as a new teener owner, I have been lurking on the forums throughout deployment but until now really havent had much to contribute. without further delay, my story.

I initially saw it and inspected it during leave the day before i went back to iraq, then bought by my wife a little later. I was pleased to come home and see that my initial inspection was preety accurate, the HH has light rust with a solid bottom although the battery tray and support is thrashed. car is a 1.7 with big bore kit and 40mm webers...runs fine although no vacuum to distributor and need rebuild kits for webers. Shows 72K miles and is mostly complete. rough interior....bad shifting... oh and sorry about the pic size ... Tony ( good being home)

welcome home!

...and

Welcome back! Looks like a good enough start into fine German rust collecting.

Welcome! I love the paintjob!

Looks like a fun project.

Funny you mention that, I was gonna get her jacked up and get started but first I wanted to just drive before she stayed up too long...

To all else I was in Balad around Anaconda mostly. presently I am in washington state Tacoma...And thank yuo all for your words.

I am gonna replace the shift ball cup and rearmost bushing (tailshifter) but that cage and finger that comes right out of the rear of the trans looks too loose when wiggloing it, is that normal?

Thanks for your service. Try to join us for Teener Tuesday sometime. Do a search to find the thread.

Great to have you home, and with us. Thanks.. Tail shifters can have the same

symtoms for alot of problems. But first adjust clutch as mentioned before, then

adjust linkage. Replacing bushings is always a good idea if they are worn out.

Have fun and stay safe...

I know all the others said the same thing but thanks for your service.

Welcome back. Just got back from the sandbox a few months ago. That is how I managed to save some money for my 914. It is very good to hear you are back safe. Spoil yourself, you deserve it. You should probably get a little more driving time in before breaking out the jackstands.

Anaconda, ouch that place SUX! I think that is the only place hadji was dumb enough to try and ambush us. Well kudo's to you for making it out of that hornets nest in one piece. Enjoy your 1.7 I just put 40's on mine with the dual advance distributor and compufire, I love the way it scoots down the road

Welcome home, and thanks for your commitment and service.
