Thanks for the kind words all.

Glad we were able to source one of Brad's (914 LTDs) last 4 reinforcement kits.
(There's only 3 kits left on ebay folks!)

They repairs are extremely solid. In some cases, internally, not pretty.
However with the external body repairs, I put the 100% effort in - I don't want some body guy later going "WTF!", haha.


Reading back through this thread, this cars come a LONG way!

When I met Joe, I saw a little rust around the rear floor and said "easy peasy, this wont take long!"

Jokes on me, the entire bottom 5" of the car has been replaced now.


Left on the list:
-Outer firewall
-Odds and ends.
-Reinforcement kit.
-Drop the subframe to knock out a couple patches (This will complete that clip repair)
-Prime and seam seal everything.

-See Joe smile (hopefully!)


P.S. Thanks to Epstein for the metal. Rear hood, side skirts and the orange quarter - all a huge aid in this car seeing the road again.


Jared

Back to work! (.......after the chiropractor!)

That took a lot of guts. Talk about a true restoration! Was any thing not rusted?

The targa top and rear window were pretty rust free and salvageable. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


Nice to see the progress and always happy to see how stoked Joe is. Taking forever, but every project I start takes twice as long as you think.

Hope to pop the front suspension back in this coming week. Do a final look over, and we'll be ready to put it back on its wheels.
