A few pictures of the Engine shrowd before sandblasting.... in a few hours it is being sent to Powdercoat for wrinkle black.
Turns out, I get the PCing for free, as we have some sims to send, so it gets mixed in with the batch. (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0380.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0381.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0382.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0366.jpg) Also might send the Engine bar? Not sure yet if I want it to match the engine shrowd or if I want to do the color of the car, OR something different, like red.... (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0363.jpg) |

I'm stoked about it! Probably either of those, but I would think it would have to be high temp paint, right? |

Nice! I need to get one of Engmans fuse boxes one of these days! It is a nice little addition. I really like it for my car, because I want my car to reflect the young part of me, being my first build, and show a few updates here and there. As for right now, I currently just finished (loosely) installing the right rear suspension, but I'm looking for the two bolts for the other side. A little while back, we totally went through all the nuts and bolts in the entire shop, I've already found a few that where organized with the shop ones, so i think thats where they disappeared to.... Pics later.... |

Loosely installed Rear Right, everything nice and painted, even the bolts....
(IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0362-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0363-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0364-1.jpg) Turns out, we had an extra Six suspension, and it was a real hassle trying to figure why certain torsion bars wouldn't fit.... (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0365-2.jpg) And as the Porsche Gods would have it, we just so happen to have brand new joints laying around (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0367.jpg) |

Maybe yeah.... It's a long drive to CO, but I've never been so we will see! These JUST came in the mail thanks to ebay/GPR and Panel Billy! We have a set of new Hella turn signals, and air ducting.... (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0369-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/IMG_0370-1.jpg) |

914/6 Suspension with Torsion bars found/sandblasted/painted. Also have all new joints.
I really dig the Satin black. I was thinking of silver, but went with this.

even the, um, bag seems a little too big for your nuts.
keep your chin up - you're young, maybe they'll grow. |
