Great tip. My old cars are always short of keys, and often have mixed locks as well

That is beautiful.

I spoke to a Belgian manufacturer at the NEC Calssic Car Show recently, they make a lovely car, but I can't remember the name.

Same blues in 73. The only way to get the code is from Porsche unless there is some paint still on the car somewhere. Has it been dipped or bead blasted? If not there must be original paint somewhere in the engine bay, trunk or under the carpets.

There were also the special order colours for 72:

Glacier Blue 326
Gulf Blue 328
Oxford blue 329
Metallic Blue 324

Is there any sign of the original paint that could supply a "chip" for a paint shop?

Parr seem to have a good reputaion. You could bring it into my workshop just south of Horsham if you want a second opinio.

There is no waiting list on rims at the moment at the moment, I have 2 sets being polished now, and I have 2 sets of to be cleaned and machined in the next couple of days

Hi

It sounds like you may well need a new clutch, but it could be an oil or synchro problem as well. I would try adjusting the clutch, changing to Swepco oil, then if the problem persists take the car to a specialist who can give you an opinion as to what needs doing

I am sure that household Nitromors, used carefully, will not harm the black. Try it on the back if the rim first,
