    @Trieu: Thanks! :)

    @Robbie: What a post! :D "The smell of the leather and engine oil when you enter the garage.. Its her must.. She is sending the signal to you that she is in heat.."

    You are so right! :D Problem, she sending the signals after a ride much more than before the ride and i could ride her the whole day! :D This car really rocks me! :)

    @Ross: I came from the aircooled 911 scene and did four really big projects and try always to do a lot by myself.

    My first motorcycle i restored aged 15 and drove it in the night, after my parents sleept! :D So since these days i´m a real gearhead and i love to work on cars. :)

    So at some point after all these years of projects i have always respect for the technic but
    the experience gave me a little safety to get the stuff reassembled.

    But to be honest, i make some pics from the parts to have a backup if my mind fails… :D

    Are those shields indented?

    EDIT:
    Never mind, just read that they are. Very nice. ;)

    Mr. Chairman has spoken... LOL

    Do we need to say anything more???

    Congrats and enjoy her in good health.

    Do follow Mr. Chairman's advice. If you are stuck, reach back and he will had you a manual, a step by step how to make things just right.

    We both miss our B*tches dearly. Enjoy yours and don't even think about selling her at any price.
