Does it matter if the doors are currently bolted up to a car??

And if that's OK, how long would it take to get the job done and them bolted back on to my car again?

--DD

no, i doesn't matter much. i'd just hate to see your good doors get scratched or worse ...

we'll probably need them for an hour or so ...
Andy

Andy,

I have 2 doors at home here in Milpitas. They function and have all the hardware. I can let you borrow them as long pick up. (no means of delivery here).

I also have 2 doors that are gutted, but no door handles I can donate. I'd rather give those away since I don't need them anymore.

let me know since I will be out early tomorrow morning, returning around 10am.

Andy
I wish i could....but i am a l...o...n...g.... ways away
they are yello so you would be garenteed to be faster
Sorry

i don't really have the means of pickup ... but thanks for the offer!

Andy

Well its almost 11 am but if you still need them, I am in Cupertino, no clue
where Scott is, but I could be there in 30 minutes. So call 408 257 0344. Dimitri

thanks for all the offers guys!

Dave Darling came by and let me borrow his pass. side door!

thank you dave, i owe you one!
Andy


PS: tech quiz: can you name 12 things wrong with this blue 914?

Wipers go the wrong direction
no left door
not the correct shade of blue
its Daves not mine
tires are a little thin on tread
bad seals on the top
you know who sitting where he is is loading the long on that side in a undue way rerndering the car scrap and now must be the guest of honor at a swazall party

I can name about 35... Plus another couple'a handfuls of things I can't figure out at all!

A few of them are from the "DPO" (Dreaded Previous Owner), and some of them are just wear or things that happen. But by far the largest share are COB-induced (Current Owner Bozo).

Hey, it does run. For now.

I'm glad we found those race doors, though. Uhh, I mean you found--all I did was help haul them down from the Big Parts Stash. (And thanks to The Pros there for suggesting that Scotty might have a dozen doors up in the stash!) The FG-skinned ones sure were easier to deal with than the full metal ones, that's for sure!!!

Hey, I've almost got my door panel back on....
