Had all new tires mounted and balanced. Tires that came on car were 15 years old and flat-spotted for sitting in one place for 12 years - but had almost full tread......

Can't wait to drive the 14 knowing it won't shake itself to death now - but waiting on my 1/2 caliper from PMB/Eric........

Worked on small misc. stuff tonight......enough to soak my shirt with sweat even tho it's only about 80....

Yup. Going to install this Wednesday with Keith’s help; he installed the same kit on his 914. The difference is quite noticeable. We are going to install the Tangerine beating at the firewall too.

Good news/bad news.

New tires all around, all new car after driving 15 year old, 12-year flat-spotted ones.

Bad news is drove car long enough to get it good and hot - which resulted in a significant loss of power.......engine rebuild needed at 60k miles? Looks like it.

Also ordered Euro tail light lenses after my left one crumbled in my hands....from Sierra Madre......

Thanks GN.

My son (the soon to be primary driver) is out in the garage putting a coat of wax on it and I gotta say it is looking 150 times better. It still has a metric crap ton of chips all over the body but it looks so much better than it did when we pulled into the driveway this morning. I'll get some good pictures tomorrow.

I made a pattern for the rear wing. This is the shape I need to make up the templets for the foam frames for the wing.

Drove it home after a week away at a buddy's cottage... did you know you can get a tuba, two trombones and a week's worth of clothes in a 914 ? We go play music for a week every summer in Kincardine Ontario. 2 hour drive home and the car never missed a beat.

Did a bit of polishing to the old paint while I wait for SS fuel lines and other bits. Surprisingly appears presentable.
