Re: No none electric car sales from 2030??

Only seen one VW, a Jaguar and one Polaris. The latter two are Chinese I believe and the VW has software issues I’m told. My Jaguar I-Pace (which is an astonishing achievement by such a relatively small manufacturer, and outclasses all the Teslas, e-trons and EQC’s on almost every count, but above ...

A wonderful thread documenting your exemplary skills Dave to create such a stunning car, which is without doubt the unrivalled inspiration for mine. If mine can be half as good as yours I'll be very happy indeed (although I will be striving for accuracy, quality and detail at every stage - and getti...

Thanks stretch! What’s his username and I’ll send him a PM and mention your name!

Re: WTB: Complete & running ‘72 S engine

Great, thanks for the tip.

I bought an original NOS Bosch cut-off switch for the LHS scuttle from Amallagh on eBay a little while ago but I may well have found a complete but dismantled S engine already from another board member which all being well I will be proceeding with.

Re: WTB: ‘72 2.4S crankcases

Thanks for the offer Mike.

Let's see if anything comes up. If not, I could be interested and would sell the complete T engine I have in my donor car.

Market price of original 1972 M409 Recaros & standard seats?

What would be the market price of a pair of 1972 M409 Recaros in black leatherette/ houndstooth in mint condition and also what would be the price of a pair of standard seats in the same trim?

Thanks.

Re: FS: 911S Rear Overiders.

Hi
Are there any differences between model years for these? I could be looking for a pair for a '72 S but they would need to be correct.

Thanks.
