Restoring a Porsche (914)

Tuesday, May 18, 2010

Below the Surface

I always underestimate what I can accomplish in a weekend.  This time around I had what I thought was a reasonable list:
  • pull the calipers off all four wheels for rebuilding at home
  • install the new vacuum hoses
  • set the idle; check the dwell and timing
  • maybe even have time to check the valves
What did I accomplish?  I familiarized myself with my 914 and got a handle on what an endeavor this was going to be.  Don't get my wrong, I'll have a ball -- I love working on cars -- but this is my first vehicular restoration project.  Check out the pics to see what I'm in for.
