I'll be there, no (porsche) car yet to show I'm afraid
we've got the kitchen on the go too, and as the porsche is black thought I should at least put some colour into the house, so the units are all blood orange.....

hi all sound advice,rust pitting has not damaged the splines, just have surface rust, but if the bars are so reasonable, then a new / replacement pair might be in order haasad, mine sound the same as yours, probably about the same depth of corrosion, grease nipple is an interesting idea, certainly w...

I have (finally) managed to extract the front torsion bars from their A frame mounts and noticed a fair bit of surface rust under the original bubbly paint, extending for about 75mm inboard of the splined ends Rust is at the rear end, adjacent to the steering rack, the rest of the bars are fine Ques...

Steve rang the guy today, seems pretty friendly he's having them machined/ painted up at the moment so needs about a week or so to call back with a price His standard type is machined to fit into a W 313H engine stand (hope I got that right !) which means they are 60mm outer diameter, but can have t...

hi all sorry yet another question, hopefully this might help someone else too in the long run picture below is of my brake master cylinder, for a 1975 2.7 Carera (no servo) http://www.muchos.co.uk/members/jtparr/webbrakemaster.jpg question is whether it needs replacing as the 2 upper rubber conector...

thanks andy, david

I checked the discs last night, rears are down to 18mm, so they get binned, fronts are pretty much 20mm so i guess probably newer ones

might just treat myself to new ones front and back, at least it'll look smarter than half and halfthanks again

hi rear spring plate to be precise I am poised to buy a set of poly bushes but do not know whether to buy them for the rear spring plates I would like to get the (gruby but otherwise perfectly sound) plates replated so that rather suggests i have to cut off the old rubber and buy new poly bushes, bu...

I will need to get my door handles re-chromed and a number of bits re plated with the bright yellow (zinc?) coating

Just wondered if anyone could recomend a plater in the Surrey area


thanks a lot

morning is there a recomended minimum thickness that discs can be measured for, my 75 2.7 Carrera has vented fronts and solid rears I have no idea about the age of my discs, they have light scoring on them, the usual rusty inner section and rusty edges and a bit of a lip on the edges Bert at berlyn ...
