I might be just too slow to get it done (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) , but I'm trying to get the 73 drivable for the FFC. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)
I've got a lot of work left to do, but if I can make good steady progress I've got a shot at driving it at the event. I don't think there is much of a chance of getting it 100% complete, so my goal is drivable. I haven't posted any updates in a while so I going to post some pics of stuff I have done. And then I'll try to post frequent progress updates. 914 & 2.0 badges and license plate holder were powder coated a few weeks back. I installed them a couple of weekends back. Attached image(s)

I have several hours of polishing in each of the fog light grills. They were covered in that green corrosion stuff that forms on these parts. A whole lot of scrubbing with chrome polish turned them back into excellent condition.
I also cleaned up the speed nuts for attaching the grills to the bumper, and painted them with metal mask paint from POR products. New SS screws too (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s)
