My '72 911T

[Gary71]

Hi jb,

No downside I can see, other than the bank transfer

You get all the brackets you need in the kit, a bit of modification and tweeking is required, but you'll work it out eventually

Any problems give me a shout.

Hi there: no I had to do a bank transfer, but the liner comapny sent me their bank details, and my bank seemed quite used to the process, so it wasn't really a problem.

The liners come with brackets, but I think there were two per corner ( : not sure) either way, enough to get everything attached and sorted.

As for why people don't fit them:

They are a bit of a fiddle to fit: when you first offer them up, you can't imagine how you are going to get them on: they don't really locate anywhere as such, and it's difficult to get going. Once you've got the first one in though, you get the hang of it. Be aware these do need some general tweaking and cutting about to fit.

If you've got an external oil cooler, then you'd have to be sure not to restrict airflow around it.

They don't look very original: however they make it easy to keep the arch area looking smart.

They can make some maintainence tasks slightly more fiddly, but probably balanced by not having to hose out your arches all the time.

Personally I feel that if you are actually going to use your car, and esp. if you fancy the odd autumn/winter/spring drive and not want to worry about the salt/rain/roadkill or cow poo ending up in the most intimate regions of your 911, then they are well worth going for.

Sorry to be boring, but as a new ddker i've been trawling through all the sites-is the photo of the car taken outside Gawsworth Hall? It looks mint(the car not the hall!)

Hoping to post some pics of my car soon-can't believe i paid sixty brick for PCGB membership and then found DDK.

Keep up the good work.

Hi,

It is indeed Gawsworth, a couple of years ago!

You are just down the road, I pass through congelton on my occasional balst to Buxton and back. Great bit of tarmac

[FraserMurray]

There's quite a DDK Cheshire set building up! We should arrange a little get together some time. That way I might get up the momentum to get the car out and running again!

You just missed the Market Drayton meet

I need to fix my car as well, no change there then

Hi Gary,

A friend of mine's parents own that place! He is my only friend with two suits of armour in his hallway

His dad and brother are really into cars and they do shows and other events there in the summer.

What? Nearly everyone I know has suits of armour in the hall

I went back last year for the main classic car show and mine was the only early 911 there! To be honest though, you've seen one, you've seen them all Shame the driving rain took the edge of an otherwise well turned out show.

Lovely looking car, I'm loving that evening photo.

Any sign of the welder (as in machine) yet?
