Mechanical Repairs and Modifications

-- 24.03.2001 CV Joint Destruction - and the repairs to get back on the road.
Well, its another weekend, and I have all the parts I need to finish fixing the 914 and get him back on the road. I can't wait to have a weekend to do a computer project 8-) Anyway, here is a picture of the damange that the CV joint comming loose caused. When it broke off, it had one of the new bolts left in it, which unfortunately let the CV Join spin off keal which caused the shifter damage.

-- 5.03.2001 Exhaust Repair - Saving a muffler with a little former aircraft experience.
This was a repair I am kinda proud of. I didn't think I would end up using my sheet metal experience again till I got my second teener. When I had my first I wasn't too into repair it myself as it was not only my daily driver, but my only car as well. And back then we didn't have rennlist ;-) At least I don't think we did 8 years ago... anyway, check out the repair if you like and drop me a line if you have any questions. It is holding up VERY well, and I don't expect it to change anytime soon either. Here is a picture of the damage I repaired. You can see the remenance of the old muffler tape fix which failed. As you will see our fix will hold for quite a while if not permanently.
