Re: From ‘72T to 2.5 S/T: GeLo #44

Car looks like a great base, I too bought a car from Beverly Hills car club in 2018 but was over there at the time, test drove the car and inspected it on a ramp, chucked a price at him which he declined, flew home, chased him up a day later and price agreed, even arranged shipping for me at $1200. ...

Re: Harry’s garage update - junk ‘genuine’ parts

A few years ago when I was restoring my 70s 2 door V8 range rover, I stupidly replaced things like points and condenser like you do thinking I don't want them letting me down. A month later the car starting missing and running terrible until on my way home it completely packed in and wouldn't start,...

Re: Beverley Hills Car Club

Definitely a place you need to visit if you're buying a car. I was there in 2018, amazing place to walk round, cars in all sort of states, just as I was leaving a lovely 1981 911SC pulled in that they'd just taken for a smog test. I showed some interest, took it for a test drive, had it up on the ra...

Re: 1974-'77 Porsche 911 'black hatched' side vinyl decals

Hi Mike,
I might be interested in a pair, can you give me total length of decals as they're to fit something later.
Oh and a price.

Re: Cleaning Shiny Leather Steering Wheel

I used a damp Magic eraser too on shiney 996 wheel, don't go mad with pressure and couldn't believe the muck that it fetched out, just wipe clean using a microfibre and a good few coats of leather conditioner and it come pretty good. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eraser-Removes-Impossible-Stains-Crayon/d...

Re: Buyer beware...

Tested the amazon loctite on a M16 capscrew and nut overnight and needed plenty of torque and swing on it to remove it this morning so happy with the Amazon stuff.

Re: Buyer beware...

Just bought some 243 from Amazon and all looks genuine, same bottle as before with all dates BB and manufactured date.
Can't imagine Amazon selling fakes but who knows.
