No this is not a piece cut from a rust free California 914 but rather a construction of all of the great aftermarket rust repair panels available for our 914s.
Panels + Pieces consist of: Upper Longitudinal Battery Tray Battery Support Engine Shelf Inner Suspension Console Inner Wheelhouse Jack Plate Jack Tube Outer Firewall Inner Firewall Cross Member Floor Pan Quarter Door Sill Door Jamb Floor Pan Triangle (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/four.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/one.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/two.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/six.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/five.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autoatlanta.com/rustoration/new/three.jpg) |

What cool perspective of the hell hole area.
There is one part that is not quite original though. I'm sure it's made that way for ease of manufacturing, but it's worth pointing out for educational purposes. This portion is double layered in the original pieces. The 'corrugated' metal was a C shape that fit inside the U shaped inner longitudinal. |

The 'corrugated' metal was a C shape that fit inside the U shaped inner longitudinal. Very very good observation. Yes it does not look original! This part is stamped from a heavier gauge metal and then ribbed for extra strengh, the factory piece being thinner metal and sandwiched with ribs only on the thinner inside piece, and yes ease of manufacturing!!!!!!!! On the money!!!!!!! |
