Did you go in Graham? Quite a queue if you weren't shopping.
1970 911T, Signal orange (
Restoration thread )
1988 3.2 Carrera backdate, Black
2001 996 Turbo, Lapis blue (am I allowed to put that here?)
I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.
