Almost 6 years (!!!) into this and still not back together. Amazing how much having kids, a house remodel, and a job get into the way of 914 time.

Anyways... I really want to get him back on the road and I've found a couple hours in the evening lately to resume re-assembly.

A ton of cleanup and redo-ing and detailing after the car has spent time in three different shops. Here are some photos of the small stuff (over spray cleanup, wire harness hold downs, fuel pump wiring, etc, etc).

Caught your thread for the first time the other day and pretty much read the whole thing. Was sorry to see what happened. I can relate to your project and the time it is taking to get er done. Your doing great work and I am happy to see it is coming along so well. I live in Poway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Replaced the new repro trunk seal with a new OEM seal. It fits much better, but unfortunately, I think it's an old OEM seal and some of the corners are coming unglued. Anyone know whats a good glue to re-glue the corners of these rubber seals?

Also, I'm pretty sure this is an Porsche OEM rubber seal (purchased from Pelican Parts), but it is not marked "Germany" as the OEM seal on my green car is. Hmmm...

I used 3M super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive yellow. Sometimes lovingly referred to as "snake snot". Worked great! Best of luck.
