I installed the rear trunk lid torsion bars last night. The one that engages on the driver's side rear trunk roller was a real PITA! I had to disassemble the drain funnels, pop out the targa latch cup, and twist, bend and pull the torsion bar forcefully yet being careful to not scratch the paint. A real PITA! But it is in now (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) The other torsion rod is not bad at all.

Come on man, you aren't being realistic. That car is not clean enough to present at FFC.
Ok, that's not even funny. WOW DOUG. VERY NICE!

very nice work. too clean (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) . it's a shame so much of the effort is hidden under the car, but you know it's done. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

Progress today.

I was able to make good progress on the front bumper area. Damn near got done as much as I hoped I could get done in one evening (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) . That doesn't happen often enough -I am usually lucky to get done half of what I thought i could.

Here's what it looked at the start of the evening.

I got a good deal on a 73/74 front bumper months ago. It is in excellent condition. But I did run into a problem with it. The bumper was about 1/2" too narrow to fit on the car. Discovered that the short return on the driver's side was bent in. A little (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) and it fit fine.

I have several hours of polishing in each of the fog light grills. They were covered in that green corrosion stuff that forms on these parts. A whole lot of scrubbing with chrome polish turned them back into excellent condition.

I also cleaned up the speed nuts for attaching the grills to the bumper, and painted them with metal mask paint from POR products. New SS screws too (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Monday I picked up the fiberglass portion of the front flex dam from the painter. I should have fitted it prior to paint. I had to use a dremel tool to trim a little to get it to fit better.

Still need to adjust the fog lights and add a couple more fasteners. But nearly got it completely installed.
