Finally got the engine pulled on my project.

Been farting around waiting to pull the engine on the car, spin a bearing last summer and gotta do some rust repair so I had to pull my first engine. What a pain in the dick.

That is definitely not an accommodating workspace, but that car has to be a blast to drive. Good work getting that bastard outta there

Yeah unfortunately the garage is taken by the wife's project so I get to work in the driveway haha. It's an absolute riot, built 3800 makes for a good time.

Hopefully I can get some stuff repaired and a manual mated up and back to ripping

Is hers a 924 ?

And here I just saw some post about a HOA fining a guy $200 because his new electronic front door lock on his house was not the right color .

Yeah, 77 924 with dual carb swap. Picked it up super cheap and trying to get it back on the road haha.

Luckily I don't have an HOA and all the mess is tucked back behind the house, usually it doesn't look this bad to be fair, but it's been a thrash trying to get a ton of stuff done on all the cars in a short period 😅

This supercharged 3800 looks like a LOT of fun! What is the wife’s project, a 944?

Honestly, just check out harmon.my. It’s a social app built for car logs and tracking mods. Used it to get rid of my messy iPhone notes list, plus it’s cool to see what your friends are running on their builds without having to text them for a spec list.
