DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Derek - they will fit but if you're not in a hurry I would try & find a pair of the earlier '74-'75 aluminium trailing arms. These utilise the same rear antiroll bar fixings as your car (as did the '76 & '77 version) but the post '75 arms can cause interference with the '71 & earlier out...

OK - it's time to own up.... the 4-cam engine I posted a picture of above is (unfortunately) not mine.



It was a wind-up.

Get the seller to send it via USPS (std US postal service) - should be well under $100 for both rear bumper halves (airmail).

Don't forget to ask the seller to 'downgrade' the value to e.g $25 in order to minimise the chance of being caught for import duty/VAT/admin charges.

Been looking for a suitable vehicle for this old engine I have had 'cluttering up' my garage...

Nigel - here are a couple of pictures of the std seat runners: http://home.clara.net/andyjboy/stdrunners.jpg http://home.clara.net/andyjboy/stdrunnerscloseup.jpg The wider part (red arrow) bolts to the seat whilst the narrower section (blue arrows) bolts to the rails on the floorpan: http://home.cla...

Luke - the lower rear shock is held to the trailing arm by means of a hex-headed bolt (M12 x 1.5 x 85mm in earlier models then M14 x 1.5 x 85mm for '72-on models). It sounds as though the head of the bolt has sheared off leaving the threaded section seized into the trailing arm. You will need to rem...

Miggs - it's a Weltmeister short shift kit. I got mine originally from Automotion in the States - now amalgamated with Performance Products. Same model fits '65-'72 911 & 912 (approx $100 + shipping): http://www.performanceproducts.com/ProductPage.aspx?ProductName=Weltmeister+Short+Shift+Kit&...

Hi Tim - are you talking about that Recaro sport seat you bought on ebay? :wink: I would get the frame shotblasted & powder-coated black. The reclining mechanism on the side of the seat was painted black - I think it was 'wrinkle' finish. This is one of the pictures swbsam posted on the Early 91...

Got the same message as Nick regarding delayed outgoing ferry sailing.

Are these purely for road use or do you anticipate using your car in some form of competition ?

Hi Harry - these are the tyres you need :

Click on the above link then click 'Motorsport'.

Don't know if Colway have an outlet in the US though.

Nick's correct - it's almost certainly a modern Prototipo. Can't be 100% sure without seeing the whole wheel as Momo made several models which were very similar. Do you want to fit one of these wheels to your car ? I have about half a dozen Prototipos at the moment in various guises (there are many ...

I've used GTX - both 20/50 & 15/40 - in 911's & 912's.

Excellent performance & cheap price means that you can afford to change it regularly.
