So...Axle is now safely in my garage, and I'm happy to say that her (yeah, she will likely get renamed, maybe Brynhildr or something apropos).

Lars left a few projects for me, so I've taken up the quest, and already have a list of wants and needs as I make her mine.

1. Rejetting for sea level
2. Wiring up the h4 lights and modifying/completing some of the other wiring essentials (for state inspection anyway)
3. Interior restyle including new dash trim with basketweave, some slightly different seats and door panels, 911R wheel and minor bits and bobs and maybe swapping out the green face gauges for silver button along with painting the binnacle satin black.
4. Silver striping and details
5. Jwest Rennshifter (I need the reverse lockout for safety)
6. Considering some R Gruppe style wheel options

The weather outside was a big motivator.

I decided to tackle the headlight wiring. It was a ***** to chase down the wiring and add relays for the H4 bulbs, but in the end i persevered. We have headlights.

Interior complete. I've changed over to black faced gauges, trimmed in some of the grey primer that was showing, added a Jwest Rennshifter, solved various electrical issues, new seats and door panels, etc.
