Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
Only saw 80k reached . There was an extra bit of documentation put up late on , letter from Porsche with build data , the engine number looked different to that shown in one of the mechanical pictures , unfortunately I did not record the number on the letter !

Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
A friend asked me to look at the auction , he was attracted by the Historika resto , and its an S and supposedly matching numbers but no CoA seen. I found it hard to read the documentation on the site and thought the pictures were not very professional or detailed. Armed with only that to go on , I ...

Last time I had one done it was Solexes at Fenn Lane Motorsport , since Chris Flavell died I am out of touch with them .

Re: Restoration Design Speedster - Detailed pics now added
I went to the LA Lit meet , like Angus and a few others , and was fortunate enough to have a good look at the Restoration Design Speedster shell . Well you have to be in the mindset of what an original Speedster now costs , and if you can bear that then I think you might be seriously interested . Bu...

More aggressive brake pads ?
I have 2 old Porsches , both are fitted with disc brakes , both could do with stopping quicker . First up is a 1955 356 Outlaw fitted with 912 engine and 356C brakes wheels transmission .
