Very nice car to drive! Sitting in my workshop at present! MFI available!

Nice Xmas present!

Pic from under the dash reveals the original colour. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn167/mcdarcy/1C1D0D57-D7D2-4CD4-A780-7C96C18B6E4F-929-00000198A24B6172.jpg Is this Oslo Blue? http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn167/mcdarcy/45CE0CFD-85D3-44A3-A599-1E91A2401412-929-00000199C5FC7454.jpg Found ...

Moment of truth! Underside revealed... Solid(ish) but not how it left the factory. Front section replaced with sheet steel, rear still original but rough! Rear section around the torque tube on inside looking a bit crumbley... Will be cut out and replaced.... http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn167...

My Targa is done , I've just filled it's place!!

I doubt anything will be happening in that Workshop today after the "Big Christmas Dinner"!!

Holysh*t... I love it, but I reckon I may have to upgrade the brakes!! Thinking something a little tamer... I now have managed to track down and talk to the last American owner of the car. I randomly typed in the guy's name and town in to Google and sent an email to the guy on his work address... Ca...

Update:

The car has arrived and is currently at Chris Turner's.

I'm waiting for a ramp so that we can inspect properly.

Very happy with it so far... That may simply be because it actually arrived!

Time to prepare a list!! Anyone got an engine for sale?

Well.... After a couple of worried thoughts having read opinions on here.... the car has been collected and will be back in the UK middle of next week. General observations from the driver is that it is pretty solid.... Will update once it arrives! Might be worth checking out the 69' 911E that the g...

Rock n roll...

Maybe I'll be another eBay statistic...

It's always a worry buying blind from aboard when dealing with someone who doesn't have English as a first language...

I know who he is, where he lives and who his family are!! :-/

Fingers crossed....

I was initially deeply suspicious!!!

Hey ho... We will see if it happens! I actually was closer to the reserve price he set, so not the end of the world. In theory covered by eBay, Paypal and my credit card... I've personally had no issue with him, he has been very responsive with me. Answers my calls, responds to my emails, he has bef...

Hi, I've bought it and in theory it should be delivered to me here in the UK on the 11th December. I'm using AVL to do the collection and delivery. Bloke selling is Joaquim Bessa who is pretty well known on the classic rallying circuit. He has a 911 ST that is currently at Stuggart being work on, ra...

My 2.2T Targa is at Chris Turner's getting the engine rebuilt (as a 2.7 though).

Hi, my mate is nearing completion of the restoration of his 356 C and is still searching for new/good condition floats for the carbs so he can finish the engine rebuild!

If anyone can help, please PM me.

Thanks
