Just picked up my new 914 in its Ravenna Green livery. I'm not sure if my wife's more bummed out that the new car is lime green or that I still have my old 914.

I picked the car; the color came on the car. Nice classic color but not sure if I'll keep it once I start repainting..

The only thing I've done on the 5-lug is strip and polish the wheels. I spent a lot of time cleaning up the spokes of the wheels. Will paint the background black. 19mm Master Cylinder and rear Tee ordered.

For the suspension, I will inspect everything and unless something jumps out at me, I'll mount it all then replace items as needed such as ball joints, tie rod ends, bearings, rebuild calipers. The rears calipers on the green car will stay as they have been rebuilt recently and the rear is 4-to-5 lug converted 914.
