Car: 68 SWB 912
Shell - Strip
Blast- Holes
Body Repairs- Floor, Parcel shelf, Tank support, Rear Seats (Thanks Mick)
Engine Rebuild- Mains, Pistons, Heads, Cam, machining.
Under body- Seal (POR 15)
Engine Finish
Paint – Champagne Yellow

Well done on the 912 Garry! Have to say though saw the 'S' at Alan's shortly before Christmas and that colour is sensational. 8)
