Undersealing our Porsche 914

Karl Reilly is one very lucky man having bagged himself his second prize in our competitions. Back in October 2020 Karl received the call that he had won the Triumph TR3. 4 years on, he still owns the TR3 and is now the proud owner of prize number 2, our Porsche 914.
But before the car can leave our workshops we have tidied up the underneath by cleaning up any loose debris and giving a fresh coat of underseal.

Continue to build up from photos. Find engine steady shock for engine mounts and strip and clean and prep for painting. Clean stripped door mirrors, Polish chrome and back to black rubber edging. Pop over to Classic lounge to take some reference photos of doors. Find door seal and tape to place. Find fixings and all chrome trims for offside door. Unable to find all parts for nearside door as of yet. Still sorting through stuff.
View wiring diagram for wire colurs and termination points. Route and pull wiring through body to front grill area. Label wiring ready.
We’ve sourced some foam from Lydia in the upholstery department which can be used for the heater flaps. The old foam flaps have been cleaned up and we’ve applied double sided tape.
Cut foam to size and stick to the flaps. Jon has refitted the flaps to the heater box and tested each one as its fitted. The process has been repeat for all flaps inside the heater.
Apply foam to heater matrix and fit to heater box.
