Just looking through your latest post / pictures. Excellent work. The heater pipe is pretty easy to do. Just don't try to weld the heat tube clips to the longitudinal - like I did on my first 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif). Didn't work. I overside the holes just a bit and go with a larger pop-rivet. Depending on the amount of rust work needed for the inner rocker and inner wheelhouse area, you'll be buttoning up the drivers side soon.
