(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) Another month gone by and nowhere near the time I planned has gone into the car.Hour here hour less there. Anywhoo Hell got a "little (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) " worse. All of the silver is new metal coated with BLOXIDE: great weld through primer but pricey (25.00 per quart) it wraps under the left (rear) side as well.

Long was hosed down with rust converter (see 2 pics ago) and all was coated with Eastwoods rust encapsulator before new piece was put in. BTW this piece fit like shit. Upper left corner was bent to much and had to be heated,pulled then welded to get it right on (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) the curve on the lower portion where it straightens out, dips down WAY to low (almost a full inch) When I made the inner pieces, I still had the outside on the car to match up to, so my pieces fit like the original. Another quality aftermarket piece (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif)

That your homework on the door panel?

Looks good so far. Your doing it a bit differently than me, but I like seeing all the methods (you never know, I might do this again someday). (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

The silver color is actually a "semi gloss" chrome with a semi gloss clear over top of it. It looks almost exactly like raw aluminum as you can see by the pic including the re-man alternator which is NOT coated. I really like this look because it also has a nice ghjost chrome look on round surfaces like the intake runners (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'll be using it quite a bit on this car and my 944 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Obviously some minor things to finish up on the engine. ( vaccum lines etc.) Pictures don't really do this engine justice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Does anyone here rebuild the blower motors?

Ooops forgot the spare wheel pic, it's OOOhhh so important right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) Magnifico!- being as I'm only a couple hrs. north of you I'd like to come down & take a look myself. My "new" six is a hotrod in need of a serious "body wash", such as your Dads'. Let me know what you think & keep up the excellent educational programming for novices like myself.

Anytime you'd like Johnny! I have actually been thinking about a get together down here BUT I don't have anyplace suitable right now. I will be offering trailing arm rebuilding/powdercoating services to people here soon and if that werks out I will be renting a small shop, so maybe that would be a good place for a gathering. As for one or 2 people you're more than welcome to come to my parents house one satuday! Just be prepared for the clusterf-ck that is my garage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I'd like to stop by too for a visit. What part of town are you in? All of my family lives in the west end, and I also get up there every so often on business. I lived out on the western tip of goochland until a year and a half ago.

I'm tearing down my 76 to the tub, so I'll be in need of some powder coating at some point.

If anything there's always time for (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Mike I'm on the western Chesterfield border. The back corner of my piece of property is actually in Powhatan. Probably a 25 minute drive from the west end. I werk in Ashland and will most likely be renting a place up there IF the trailing arm gig is a hit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Main thing I need right now is somewhere to werk on MY car(s) My 944 has been sitting in the driveway in primer for about 6 months now , since I left my last job,and all I can do is run it down the street every 2 weeks to keep all of the mechanicals alive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) REALLY needs to get in doors as the tarps have scratched through the primer and is now showing some light surface rust (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Halfway in between actually. On Genito road. Yeah 288 is a great thing having to go that far (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Still a 45 min drive each way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
