    External oil cooler line brackets installed .... interestingly there are small detents for the locations of the three brackets. The little brackets themselves are not in the parts system and have to be fabricated.

But, I just wanted to thank a fellow member for their help with this, I was excited to see the pics today, this was all done in one day and some of you may recognize home garage but I will keep anonymous out of respect. But thanks for the help with the baby.

    Forget about Ebola, these old Porsches are a sickness of their own, you can't give them up, bringing them back to their former glory spreads like a bad disease. A little thing here, a little thing there, a bigger thing here, a much bigger thing there, but don't cut off the leg! It's something that grips you, get's a hold of you, something you can't give up. Like an Eliot Spitzer hooker, you know you shouldn't be dumping money on her, all over her, hell.... in her, but you can't help it.....you want to shower her with Benjamin's until you lose your sanity, your wife, and hypocritical job! Oh wait.....it's only Friday and she won't be back this weekend, she's still suspended in mid-air......waiting the next surgery....boobs are out, fenders are in....brakes are next....to be continued...carry on....
    To those who wonder "why you need a lift"? Of course it's so much easier to do this kind of work on a concrete floor.

    Change to my other tire/wheel set.......

    I have two sets of 7' and 8's with the same RA1's on all 8..........

    I bought the 8 tires last July and I'm trying to alternate their use....

    The 'pretty set' of wheels I had done at Highland Plating' in 1990...
    The 'other set' of wheels I bought from Frank Beck in early 1996. They were a great set of stock black centered 7's & 8's, however I've tried to refinished them myself many different ways since...

    This last time bead blasted with black background and Scotchbrite/buffed centers......

    Every time I look at the 'other set' I've poorly done, I appreciate what Harvey Weidman does perfectly every day..........

    ... and so it goes

    - A 'pretty' rear
    - The 'other' set
    - The 'other' rear
