I thought you would like that.. Went and did a quick inspection this morning.. I am light on color in a few spots underneath the the headlight motors.. Shouldn't be an issue though.

It will still probably be in the top 1% of great looking 914's. Bob's will just happen to be in the top .1%.

Congratulations Ben. That looks terrific. I would swear, from the picture, it was Tangerine too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Ben, I did not pay much attention to your door braces until now, when you posted that "before" pic, and I thought maybe they were designed to allow the doors to be bolted on. Going back to the start of this thread, however, it seems you had to cut them off to put the doors on.

Make the wife happy. I spent a good part of my day wearing a respirator, face shield and leather gloves. Much easier to do this now that it’s cool outside.

I would take a photo of my garage, but I don't want to give anyone a heart attack so close to X-mas.

I'll hopefully get some time to clean up over the holidays when I'm 'working from home' next week (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

BTW mb911, your car is looking great. I may do something similar with the sound deadening on my car, since the insides are bare metal now.
