Crayford 914-6

chaps I am doing some research on a 914-6 here in Sydney and the owner seems to think its a Crayford car. I received a list from Barrie at the Crayford club but it only gives the Crayford numbers not the Porsche chassis numbers. Is there a list of Porsche's chassis numbers for Crayford conversions ?...

Re: RS wheel colour

Mike

according to the RS book the correct colour should be Mexico blue but the wheels may have been repainted Arrow blue,a later colour,at some stage.

Re: First road test or press article of RHD 911

Robin your pic of FGX shows a '74 911 in the background so its later than 'in the day' it also shows some differences to the original '66 Autosport test - 14" (?) Fuchs,black wipers,CN36s,the larger Durant mirror and the driving /fog lights have disappeared I'm wondering if your pic is of a lat...

Re: First road test or press article of RHD 911

Re: First road test or press article of RHD 911

Ian nothing in the older Brooklands reprints 1 picture in the Michael Cotton collector book which describes it as an AFN demonstrator rather than a press car being an early UK 911 it may have been pre sold but had a limited life as a demonstrator to AFN's valued clients just speculating ..... do you...

Re: Which Coil

Lee

sounds like dirty gas issues if its coming and going
check your tank and its filter - the gas lines and replace the gas filter
if it was the coil it should stop the motor dead
avoid the Bosch silver coils - see lots of rude posts on this board
