Finally gots me a porsche, it's a 72 with a 1.7 and a major oil leak...

Just thought I would join the forum and also share my good news

Heres a few pics of the thing



A crappy one with lots of glare....


and a look at the battery post as well....


The upholstery as well


Well, there you have it just thought I'd share my excitment and such!

I'll post more pics later

Congrats and welcome.

Fixing that left rear fender isn't going to be fun. Ride height also looks goofy, like it's higher in front than in the rear.

Thanks, but it ain't the fender I'm worried about (I got a heat gun, I'll just weld some rods to it, pull i out, ect.), theres rust in the front right corner of the engine compartment... a lot

Oh Rusto Rust, we love rust!!
My Teeners almost lost my trust...
At least she gives me things to do..
She's a girl who's gonna bust
I sawsall through and through
My teeners an iron oxide fuss,
ask the club, they know it's true.
but she's so hot, even rust free rollers...
one day you'll see right through!

PS. I think it's time for a crumbling rusto emoticon.

Rust? We don't call it rust. I call it the crap that holds the por15 together.

Check and see if the rust got down to the suspension pick up point.. Take off the RR wheel... You'll see it. and the big gaping hole from the rust.. lol

Well, heres a picture of "crap that hold por15 together" haha


As for the engine, lots of grease and such. I pulled it, cleaned it up but it still seems kind of funny. The guy said it had a major oil leak, but I found oil everywhere. It even *leaked* right into the air filter. The darnedest thing! ha


The interior isn't bad as said before. Just one minor problem....

Someone laid a massive interior eating fart that completely riped my seats to nothing. Thank you Mr. Fart perpitrator

Last but not least is my sexy clutch pedal (complete with peanut shells! ) The clutch cable broke and I replaced it. Sorry if it's a little fuzzy...


I'll have mor pics up later on in the day! until next time...

Here are some more pictures of the intake pipes...

I got them sanded down and looking forward to painting them within the hour


and

Wow - you work quickly! My seat had the same problem as your, and was solved by spending $30 bucks on a new/used bottom cushion that looked almost new for being 30 yrs old - way cheaper than hainv it re-covered with teh correct vinyl.

Oil leak into air filter... Its an oil bath filter.

Ha, silly ol' me. Well thanks

Oh, here are some pics of the somewhat finished Intake pipes

I could've done a better job, but I'm runnin' out of light. I'll probaly scratch em' up again with 220 abd blast a final coat.

Don't feel bad, most of the 18 year olds I know would think and "oil bath" is

something kinky you do with your girlfriend (or boyfriend - Toast).

By the way nice start. Gap does not look bad on pass door, not sagging yet.

Argh!!! My friend who was supposed to come and weld flaked! guess Ill put the engine back in and drive it to a shop!

Ill have more pcs of the project up later...
sorry

Welcome to the (non)Club. A place of much 914 information. Eberybody should have at least one 914. It is a wonderful piece of driving machinery. And a very nice beginning you have there, Beauty. MSG L
