The 914/6 "rust"oration process has officially begun. I sure hope I can get out for less than $10k. Plan on some stupid CW type questions in the near future. I love pics BTW. I have some nice /4 parts to sell off to help offset the cost of this project.

Motor/tranny have been removed (many thanks to Brant, Scott, Mike and Jon for the assistance). The interior will be gutted this week. I need to remove little stuff like the fuel pump, lines, drain the tank, you get the idea. Then I get to start cutting up the parts car and stripping paint off panels to avoid spending $45/hour for body shop labor.

As Rich says, "onward..."

2.0/6 motor width thread

Pretty nice weather today so I took the afternoon off. I could use a break.

I believe this is one of the oldest restoration threads on 914world. Might be time to resuscitate it. Lots of memories in this thread. Good times... Has it really been 8 years since I took this thing apart? If I ever get the new garage organized I will finally have some room to start on this project. Something other than collecting parts that is.

Yeah, that won't work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Shar and I went across town for dinner tonight. Picked up some used CD's from Twist & Shout while I was down there.

I did fix the tach on the zambeziteen though. Now I can drive it the rest of the week when it's 60 out and have some idea how fast I'm going (speedo cable is shot).

I was wondering what ever happened to this build, so I went looking.

I've got to say (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) Gint.




Send it to me. You can drive it home in six months. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

Appreciate that Joe, but the I won't be sending a car off to either coast again any time soon.

Keeping your project in a 18x20 box loaded with every other piece of junk you own while raising three kids can really put a damper on your 914 project progress. Those in a similar situation will no doubt understand. I have room now, but doesn't it figure that now I have a 50+ hour a week job. But without a doubt, it'll get some action this summer for sure.

That's fine. I understand.......but.....

It's been SIX YEARS since it came home from paint.

Porsche built every 914 ever made in the same time frame. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

They had more room, more time, more resources, and more money. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)

I can totally relate to collecting parts. Just bought a very clean, complete stock rear sway bar this morning with all the hardware. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
