Re: 1973 911E RHD Light Ivory and ex NZ...another one.

His work is sublime and the amazing thing is the guy is so modest and down to earth. Its the total opposite of all the show off b*llocks that can be associated with the Porsche brand. A true craftsman. :salute: :salute: :salute:

Re: Long Distance Restoration 1970, 911T

Waiting for some parts before the engine goes in (hopefully this week) so the guys have been finishing a few small details.

Driving in the USA help needed please....

Im really hoping my DDK mates can help me out here. I am trying to get some insurance to be able to drive my car from Utah to L.A. but have hit a bit of a dead end.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, good to know.

Re: Long Distance Restoration 1970, 911T

So its been a while....I have been waiting for Eric and his team to get the engine back together. From what I understand they used their regular engine builder who let them down with it.
