New to this forum but I've been around 944s, 924Ss, Boxster and Cayman forums for years.
This one is going to take some time. Purchased for $900, non-running but otherwise complete '73 914 2.0. Certainly just beyond a viable restoration car but probably okay for what I plan to do with it. Here's some highlights of the tear down... On the trailer going to the house. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Looking good so far! One thing I noticed - the pedal cluster sits in a bit of a 'trough' in front of the MC hole. Currently you have it going straight across. You may have significant difficulty getting the pedal cluster to fit if you don't leave enough room. Might check some other posts here for a good picture. Keep it up, lookin good!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Yeah. I noticed that today looking at Restoration Design videos and a restoration thread on Pelican. There's a peddle cluster support bracket that locates under the pan. I left quite a bit of extra sheet metal and had planned on trimming the excess when I put the pan on. Thanks for the heads up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
