So two months later of piecing together some new parts for a clutch (911 pressure plate) and only being able to work on the car 1-2 days on the weekend (car is 75 miles away).. I now have the engine back in and bolted up with a new clutch and pp.

Since it's dirty as **** and not much to look at I had a little fun with the grit and took 2 photos...

With all of your hard work, are you planning on fully cleaning the engine and painting the bay before the project is completed? Amazing skills and dedication!

At this point, with the car being off the road for 13+ months, I just want to get it going.

I have CGT rear flares, and the 944 front fenders pictured, but I'm considering putting stock narrow body fenders back on for now... Anyone have an opinion?
