Nice score! For some reason I have an affinity for '74s with brown interiors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

So, uh, whatcha got planned for those Mahles? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)


For now I am going to hold on to the Mahles. Once I see how they look on little Red once it is painted then maybe they will be for sale.

Yesterday Mike Burkhart came over (Thanks Mike!) and we spent a good part of the day taking my donor car apart. Still have more remove, but we made a good dent in removing parts.

Thanks again Mike for all your help. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Been a while since a update. I spent some time removing more from the donor car. Mike came over yesterday and we pulled the engine & trans and removed more parts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Here's Mike and the Donor:

Wife snook out in the garage and took a picture of some strange fat guy removing the master cylinder from my donor car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Been a while since I last updated this thread, but I have been slowly working on the car. Today was a big step for me. I finished removing the suspension today and I got the car up on the rotisserie. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I'm in over my head, but I'm having fun. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Hey Garold,
Came acros your thread. Cool lift you got to raise it up high enough to mount on the rotiesere, sp?. I have been working on a rotiesere for my daughter's car, almost complete, been trying to figure how to lift high enough to be able to mount.

Yes, the lift got my car more than high enough to mount it on the rotisserie. I was able to do it safely all by myself. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
