And so it begins. Looks like you have your work cut out for you. If you need a cheerleading section or a set of hands let me know and I'll come down for a day. Maybe learn a little bit about metal work.

to SWL ,, any help is always welcome, and I am available if you need some help too
to SWW,,, I hate crappy old metal,, it sputters back at you when you weld like it's tell you to,, F.. off, then what i do is I cut some more,,, to tell it back "nah nah nah nah nah nah hey hey good bye.........
that the second 914 i do ,, the first one i did laying down on the dirt ( gravel floor) now it's all concrete and I have a pit , it really help to just be standing up in the hell hole and having the right height without killing your back
next step the other side hell hole, the trunk, the front firewall, the headlight bucket, the whole floor pan,, I might be forgetting some too, but that waht it takes to avoid dead to a -6,,
