Nice!
|
back from the 'archives'..!! I am finally able to somewhat get back to work on the project.. as some of you know, i dislocted my shoulder/broke my arm and ripped a bunch of cartlidge and tendons and stuff out a few months ago and the surgery/healing/therapy has been slow and painful to say the least...
Anyway, I have all of the bolt on stuff painted now and hope to get the body prepped and painted this week and then reassemble everything... http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102683.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102620.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102651.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102754.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102775.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102791.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102801.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102809.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1266102816.jpg |

Stayed late today and got the mirrors, sunroof, decklid, and door handles put back on.. |
Nice job. Keep the updates coming.
|
My offer to help still stands, and since it's getting warmer around here my labor costs a whole lot less.
|

Looks great. Do you work at Hot Wheels?

Nice looking 964! I like the black on white color scheme.

Very nice! And congratulations on getting "almost done." :)

well so much for driving it this weekend. failed emissions test.. (i had a a feeling it would fail because of the cat bypass but i tried anyway).. LOL. oh well, time to put the Cat on and try again..
|
Consider pre testing...find a friendly shop and disconnect one injector. It dilutes the exhasut stream as the non functioning cylinder works as an extra air pump.....I assume your State doesn't have a visual test or a rolling dyno?
|
we have visual and rolling dyno for my model year, but two places looked at the bypass pipe and 'assumed' it was the cat.. LOL.. I failed becaue of high NOx and HC readings, so the Cat and a new O2 sensor should take care of it. (it has the original O2 with 90,000 miles, so its time for that anyway.)

rattlesnak - how late are you at the shop and what days? My commute takes by your shop every day and I would like to swing by one afternoon and see that car and pick your brain a little. Thanks - Farrell

great job! I see an SLR in the background? yes? is that fixable or salvage?
|
Farrell, the past few weeks ive been there till at least 7 or 8 trying to get caught up and will be there till at least 7 for the next few days. What time do you pass by?
Baq- its an SL 500 and it is being fixed.. it was beyond totalled, but the guy bought it back and wants to fix it, so we clipped in a new front piece from another car so far. |
