Finished my spark plug hole relocation for the 2.0 heads. next a little sanding, then a trip through the blaster for the crusty spots and they will be ready for paint and install. Hey, looking good. Unless you are sending them out for paint, here is a suggestion. Yes, blast them... Then use some engine paint good for high temps, then put them in your oven at 300-ish. Kinda bakes it on. Poor mans powder coat, I call it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

The street crews have our driveway approach torn up, so the 'BB' is stuck in the driveway.
![]() Threw a 5-watt solar panel on the targa-top so it'll start when it's time to test out the new approach (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

Poor mans powder coat, I call it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I did blast them, then used my own version of the ez-bake oven. Painted them with engine paint then put them under a box with a two light bulbs inside, for a couple hours. I don't know how hot it gets them but the parts always dry real nice. Maybe next time I'll stick a meat thermometer in the side of the box Update Picture ![]() |

New curbs and gutters were poured today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) New approach to be poured this coming Tuesday. 12-foot wide, a whole lot more than the old 8-footer. Gonna make pulling the trailer in and out much easier (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
![]() Being stuck at home (to make sure they got the curb dimensions right), decided to refurbish my old miter saw stand. New wood top and bottom, and a fresh coat of Rustoleum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) ![]() Gonna head over to the shop tomorrow and play with car stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

The street crews have our driveway approach torn up, so the 'BB' is stuck in the driveway. Just wait until you get a ticket on it because it's been parked in your driveway too long (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

Today I hauled my 914-6 track car to Brainerd MN for the Harvey west memorial scca and vintage races. It's quiet at the track tonight but that will all change in the norning. ![]() Wow, sounds like fun! I haven't been to B.I.R. in many years . Went there as a kid for the drag races.then over to Pelican Lake for some of the best fishing ever. Good luck! Take some pictures and post a few. ----- Today I got to take the 914 out for a drive to the movies with my oldest(son) - great time! then met the girls(my wife and our 3 daughters) for some Fro-Yo. I still need to bleed the brakes again but seems a bit better each time. Better get it done this summer, because its got to be ready for Octeenerfest! Looks like that should be a Father-Son outing too!! |

Looked like it was thinking about raining on Saturday, so I dug out the "BB's" 'winter' top - but before I installed it, I cleaned up and installed the rear targa pad that Bruce Stone brought me last month. Got all the screws to go in except for the center one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Oh well, it ain't gonna fly off, so I ain't gonna worry about it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) It isn't the greatest, but it's better than my old one. Maybe I can slap some Bondo in the cracks? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ![]() I still have boxes of parts in the car from the G&R swap meet last month (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) ... lazy fuch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) |
