Andy

Looking good!!

Did I miss some of the repair shots?


B

Sir,
Looks like your getting ready to STUFF some 22 inch dubs under that bad boy...keep us posted on your progress. Hope to see you soon lifting the inside wheel again.
Greg

I saw that car when Thomas had it and I can't belive how good it looks to me. That car was twisted.
:PERMAGRIN: Joe

She's a beaut!

Where in the living room are you going to put it??

Jen

Nice job! It is really nice to see that this will be restored.

What did I miss? Andy has a 2nd car????

Time to have it dipped and painted before it rusts!

sweet! sweet! sweet!

look'in good

YAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!

Out of traction and off life support.

Hey, tie a rope to that handy 4 wheel trailer it's on and take it home..

Can I borrow your new trailer...

Ken

i have a couple hundred. some are brutal ...


before shots: does this look bend to you?

my favorite "before" shot ...

How many rear shims to set the rear camber in that picture?

she needed a lot of "creative pulling" ... we also had to amputate one of the front fiberglass flares for better access ...

none ...

car was wrecked in '83 and had been stored ever since ...
Andy

Dr. Rafael working his magick ...

and finally, straight at last ....


she'll be back on the road in no time!
Andy

PS: yeah right ...

Damn

Andy that looks good. When i saw that tub in the parking lot I figured no way. I figured it was headed to the crusher. Those guys are magic.

Dave

Looks like you were able to pull the strut mount straight amazing work

before and after ... back to specs ...

whoa..what a transformation !!!!!

are GT flares going back onto it??

right now, it looks like she going to be a all original *narrowbody* car again ...

using *only* factory /6 parts, even factory /6 sheetmetal for the repairs ...

this is going to be interesting. she should be better than new when i'm done with her ...
Andy

Who's factory six are you stealing parts off of???


Did you just win the lotto or is this the Andy I know?

there's a certain original /6 that had some rather nasty things done to it's body and was deemed to be a parts car at best ...

Andy

I'm lost.. are you referring to #4?

well..... I am really glad that you just didn't cut it up, I am glad that you are restoring it, they are getting more scarce every day!!

huh? are you smoking crack again?


followed the classifieds lately?
Andy

no....not tonight..

Oh, the pushmepullyou six car! good thinking!


#4 car hahahahahahahaahahah

it was a lot of work ...

i asked rafael, "are you ready for the next one?" and he said, "give me 4 weeks to recover and i'll do the next one"
Andy

" In the future, we'll all have two SIXES "

I like the welded on pull tab in the front wheel well.

So are you happy with the way the rear shock tower came out or are you still going to replace it? He did a great job but it's still a little wrinkley (i.e. not better than new).

Ausgezeichnet.

Twist and Shout, let it all hang out.

Very, very nice job!!! Great to see the pros at work saving the 914-6 ooriginal!!! Enough cannot be said for Yeaman's, Rafael, or Sir Andy for taking on the project. Congrates.

Steve Hurt

it's going to be replaced ... but we had to push it back out because we needed the measurement point. same thing in the front, even thought i'm planning on replacing some sheetmetal there around the front suspension mount, we had to recreate the original shape and weld up the ripped mount in order to pull the tub correctly ...

as i said, a lot of work ...
Andy

wow. looks nice.

Great job
one more saved

Happy welding

Wilco

Sweet, the threads on this car have been great....

big thanks to jon watts for taking the time to trailer her up to the NRF!
thank you sir ...


the ride was uneventful, only a few miles of scenic detours and 1 1/2 lost tiedowns ...
Andy

would those happen to be MY tiedowns lost???

none of the big ones, a black small one, i think ...

gotta ask jon for more details ... also ask him about "the island" ...
Andy

I was only for a few minutes.

And there was only 1 tiedown fatality, a black motorcycle one.

i added 1/2 for the one that *almost* escaped ...

Andy

I think that one was Rogers!



B << should have at least 2-3 of Muellers tie downs.

Cant count how many I have loaned out.
