With the engine out and cleaned up somewhat it was time to order some new parts and tools to get the rebuild going. Like I said I have a limited budget and I do want to get the Canary back on the road before the funds run dry. I sold my vintage Vespa scooter on eBay which went surprisingly well and I ended up with 'no questions asked' 10 grand to play with. I also add around $500 a month to the kitty to keep things a float. I know that doesn't sound like a big budget to rebuild a tired 911 engine as well as other things so doing as much as I can myself and I'm trying to be smart about where I spend the real dollars.
So I ordered a bunch of necessary parts & tools.
It worked out like this:
Jack Pad $22
