I left only 2 a/c components in the car, in case someone wants to add it later. I put in power windows, instead.

Stopped that oh so annoying "Click! Click!" That occurs when pin in door stays become worn. 6m bolt .5" long with nylock nut works perfect, no more "Click! Click!" That was an easy, cheap and quick fix thanks to this forum.

I got home from work today, took a look at Huan, and said "tomorrow we drive!". It will be above 50 tomorrow for the first time since 2013 and the rain today washed all the salt off the road. I will drive drive all day with new brake calipers and my newly installed cat. Whoo-hoo!
Just have to avoid all those craters/potholes. :-( |

Pretended to do some wrenching on it. But alas it still has a warm start issue.

Went to local Porsche club event then took E on drive to the mountains. Great day and the car ran great. After dinner I started removing all the parts necessary to replace the front spoiler. Way too many bolts and nuts that cant be seen that have to be removed. Grrrrr After getting frustrated, I decided it was time to watch tv and drink a beer. Finish it up tomorrow.

Not All Today
I purchased my '73 911T in Canada in May of 2010. Since then it's been a little puttering, a curse word or six, some long delays and then I stumbled on a self-proclaimed "Porsche mechanic" who quit the business when "they become rocket ships"!! So mine was right up his alley and his price of $25 per hour was right! Replaced or installed:
Header/heat exchangers with stainless steel type The muffler with a new Dansk Crossover pipes and all heater and air hoses Flywheel and clutch, throw out bearing, etc Replaced plugs, gaskets, filters and some seals 4 new Kumho tires Interior carpets Headliner and windshield All door and window gaskets Two battery configuration with Interstate U911; wish I had AGM Passenger seat so it would fold Front strut sway bar Front trunk carpet Turbo-tie rod set Shocks under front and rear hoods New sun visors Had the help of an upholsterer on all the interior stuff and Pelican supplied most of the parts and carpet. When the snow melts I will: Tackle two small rust bubbles Install a 70s Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio Replace cracked light bezels and, drive her once in a while!!

was thwarted in my third attempt at removing remaining stripped cv bolts, so I removed rusted flapper boxes instead….

Decided to warm her up and run around the block on dry roads. Had to smack the fuel pump relay before it kicked in. It seems I can never find a perfect one.

Cooked my rear seat. I was working on installing a dead pedal and unkown to me the shop light I had clipped to the harness bar fell down and landed in the seat.
In the meantime, I left for the hardware store. Somebody at home smelled smoke! ![]() ![]()
