1973.5 US 911T restoration

OK, here goes, a new thread covering the complete, but hopefully sympathetic, restoration of my 1973.5 911T.

200l compressor recommendations

Time for an upgrade. I'm going to invest in a 200l compressor so just wondering who has had a good experience with what.

Just on the dash vents, depends how much originality you are going for but having owned '78 and '73 cars I think the centre IB dash vents were a sensible addition. I used them a lot when I had them.

Re: My '72 911T

Keep the faith Gary and know that publishing your story will help people like me coming after you to avoid a few potential pitfalls! Great work on the liners. Have some Lokari's waiting to go into mine. All this chat about the LMC makes me feel very annoyed I can't make it. Maybe 2024... Cheers, Al
