Hi all,
Does anyone know if there is a problem with postimage? I'm not seeing photos on my resto thread and can't get it to load on browser.
Best,
Al.

Re: When your daughter surprises you for Xmas!
She’ll be a qualified architect by the time I finish my car!!
She did ask why I was changing it from a nice red to diarrhoea brown. That’s got me thinking…but I do lean towards originality.

'73 Bodyshell Dimensions
Hi all, I'm after a diagram/list of bodyshell dimensions just to do some final measuring. I have a copy of a period workshop manual that has this page, followed by a page giving dimensions, but the repro of this page is poor and I can't link the two up. https://i.postimg.cc/xd7hJN6G/Dimensions-page-...

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
Spookily similar. I presume that is another US paint job with the usual care taken to avoid overspray?!

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
This is a bit out of kilter chronologically but I forgot to post the essential shots of the engine coming out. Nothing new on DDK but always a big moment for the DIY’er. In this case, I was helped a lot by having access to a ramp at the local Technical College where I was doing the Vehicle Restorati...

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
Thanks Dean, good to know it’s of some use! So, the front floors were next to get the treatment. Again, some major panel removal needed, this time combined with a lot of spot weld drilling. I have to admit I left this lot to Terry who diligently worked his way around doing minimal damage to the sill...

Re: another 73T Targa restoration thread
Hi. If you search in this Restoration section for posts from Barry you should find his write up on the front wing to slam panel structure. Sorry I can't recall which project it was part of. Al

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
So on to the rear seat bowls. The Restoration Design panels were nice to work with but came in two pieces so again there was a lot of measurement before these were brought together and then all the different mountings were welded into their correct locations. https://i.postimg.cc/t4hcmNFh/IMG-201503...

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
OK so back to the original chronology of this project, some time in 2015… To make some early progress, we decided to leave the front end for a while and get stuck into the ‘easier’ parts of the project. By this stage I had already done a lot of research and identified what panels were best from whic...

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
OK, so the post above was supposed to be sent yesterday but looks like I didn’t click the submit button… So today I had two helpers and we managed to remove the loom and most of the other control stuff that runs through the tunnel. Spent a bit of time wrapping the loose ends of the front end of the ...

Re: 1973.5 US 911T restoration
I’m going to jump ahead a bit here to the present day because I am at the point of removing everything from the centre tunnel. At least I assume I need to remove everything – the interior of the car and the underside of the new rear seats and parcel shelf are due to be blasted along with most of the...
