I sourced some 911 rear engine mounts locally which had been cut from an unfortunate race car...torched out actually
I drilled out the spot welds and primed them with weld through primer.
I then needed to tackle the removal of the 912 mount and corner gussets
Once these were removed
And the area cleaned up and primed... the 911 mounts were fited..
Here is the completed result
I need to disassemble the doors a little further to get ready for media blasting ....took a short break this afternoon to celebrate Mothers Day....and assemble two short block 2.2s with a buddy....Mom would have been proud.
I tend to keep the parts I need for the current project...and get rid of what is not necessary. I do plan to use fiberglass front fenders. I have a great source for fenders that I have used on my 3.2 RS clone, 76 DE track car a, my 71 ST vintage clone, and this car too. I do tend to regret letting parts go that I may need later on...it's a space thing. Except for my weber carb collection. I just don't like to keep tons of parts on hand...which is why a lot of the SWB parts of the car will go away when the fiberglass arives.
