When are you planning on leaving? (I guess it's quite a trip from Minesota to CA) cheers, Jeroen <!-- QuoteEnd --></div><!-- QuoteEEnd --> Sometime between saturday night and monday. Monday is the drop dead date. I now have a co-driver. I had a friend offer to drive out with me. He's not staying for the event though. He's on a plane home thursday night. I'm leaving as soon as the car is finished enough to look somewhat complete. |

I have a loaner welder in the shop so I was able to work on the exhaust. It's almost done.

Rich,
You are the MacGyver of the 914 Club. "Oh, they don't make one of those? I'll make it myself" Un-f-ing believable. |

Oh my god that is sweet. I really want to hear that motor with those muffs. Sir you are the best fabricator around. You make them boys on TV look like amateurs. Plus it seems you are a one man show with a few kids to do the cleaning and stuff. DO I smell a reality TV show about 914-8 all Porsche conversions.
I'm next. DO mine Do mine. Got both cars ready to go. Need to go to Duluth see relatives anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

Rich,
So I've been on the road for a week and completely out of touch -- Dude, what you do in 6 days rocks! (I started my /6 today thinking "I hope it keeps running for a week") Definitely looking forward to the impending arrival! kim. |

Love the way you used the same material from the seats on the dash. Are you going to do the same to the doors? That would look very cool.
