Great to see some original thinking

Thanks James, I can see it finished in my head.....just hope it will be a reality sometime soon
The engine has been rebuilt Mick, so it should be ready to go...just need to find some carbs (yes sorry, going with carbs

) exhuast, headers, clutch, electrics, oil tank....etc etc etc
Thinking of having a word with the local guy who has done some work on my red car, I just want it finished now.....may be able to trade 3 striped shoes and clothing in return for making the car work
Cheers
Chris

Ok its not quite the same as a 917's, but for the 55cents I spent on a
HOLZKUGEL I think I can live with it

Nice work - keep the pics coming.
Are those different mounts the main or only difference between the 912 and the 911 bodyshellwise?
