Re: 1969 912 LWB
Cut up rear frames today. Only way to properly fix rust issues and bumpermounts...
Wonder if the stiffeners are 912 only as they are located where the 912 engine mounts were..?

Great DIY fabrication! Lovely to see being done so well.
Can I suggest you trial fit the oil tanks with a filter fitted? There is not much room between the diameter of the filter and the body hole.

Great work on the seat bases, I've just seen the price of repair panels so will be having a go myself soon. Did you use a shot bag to shape them?
Re: 1969 912 LWB
That was very brave of you to fabricate the seat bases by hand - good job - looking forward to seeing it finished.
