Wink How many of you look this happy after working on the 911 in the Damn cold!? HAAHAHAH!

I DO!, I DO !!!

It is still in the 20's here in Ohio .. but I still keep going out in it to play with the car .. I was cleaning the wheel weels because you guys keep showing pic's of (SPOTLESS) undersides.. so I felt i'd try too... I'll post pic's once I am done!

here is a pic of me COLD and HAPPY after the evening of workingon the P-CAr! ( I HOPE EVERYONE GETS AS MUCH JOY FROM WORKING ON THE CARS AS I DO)and partaking in my second favorite passtime!!
EATING!!!!!!
HAHHA

I am using an air die grinder with a wire wheel. it will chip the wurth body shultz right off. If your careful the primer will stay on as long as you keep moving the wheel. Wear proper protection safety glasses and a resperator and long sleeves/pants. Oh I forgot you don't live in sunny southern California so you don't need to be warned about wearing shorts/T-shirt and sandles with sunglasses.

Wow, that just plain looks scary as hell.

Eric, you need to do something besides work and work on your car. Although I must say your efforts are paying off!

Do less work on the car and maybe you can afford a better diet (is that ramen noodle soup you're enjoying so heartily?)!

I know the feeling Eric. I did the same thing last year that you're doing now. Rebuilt brake system, rebuilt steering assembly, 90% suspension rebuild and detail, scrub the complete underside of the car, crazy (as in expensive) exhaust system install................

This winter season i've run out of things to do. Current projects are H4's with relays and new wiring, windshield replacement, and 17 in. Fuchs.



Sure hope the house doesn't burn down. If it does, with no wheels the car's going down with the ship............
