I was also changing tires on my 2017 911 today, and could not help comparing to the 914 tires. Note that my C2 has the smallest rear tires of all 911s for that year.

One more sail trim detail--some glue for the forward end of the lower trim strip.

While I was feeling sticky, I needed to reglue the end of the chrome trim strip on the lower dash bolster.

And I got out the front and rear lid hinge brackets, to test the fit of new hardware.

In the front, I installed the pivot plates. I will wait to install the lid bracket until I get the dash vents and hoses done.

While I wait for some more orders to arrive I re-arranged my work space a bit, and got the stand out. Time to start some engine work. Soon.

Successful gluing of targa bolster. Cracks are still visible but the padded vinyl is flat.

Time for the steering column. The PO had an auxiliary relay for the starter, so I suspect something in the ignition circuit is bad.

Here's one problem: the original switch has cracked.

And tried to install this, including plugging in the connectors, but I had trouble getting the cables under the dash to cooperate.

Instead, I pulled out the switch module, and installed the column housing with the ignition switch.

And then the switch module, including the plugs (after arranging the cables under the dash a bit).

I was digging through my big can of old nuts and bolts and stuff, and found these. From my previous episode of 914 madness almost 30 years ago.
