A bit of the Lola-Porsche from Shelsley Walsh today:
Starts with 2 cars before me, the NG being in my Class.

That's a great bit of film Graham.
I caught a glimpse of your car on my local TV news this evening, reporting on Shelsleys 150 years.
Only saw the top of a front wing. but I knew whos car it was.

Lots of compliments, rightly so, about the car. It sounds great.

Mike Bainbridge came down to try to sort the box too, but to no avail.

Managed to get a bit of pedal travel out of the brakes today!

For perspective my parents' first house circa 1970 cost £2,500 which was $6,250 back then making the car the equivalent of £275,000 in today's money.
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.
