DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Nick for the Instruments what seals are you using as i thought the Old ones are NLA and the new ones Porsche have listed are the later SC type ones that don't fit? I have been hanging onto my old ones until I could find a replacement

The blue carpet will be finished with NOS STITCHING OF COURSE ???

Looking better and better , dont think i can even afford to look at that oil tank , hope Moss y locking doors at night!

Well, the early911 guys advised against a (literally) flakey old tank. We didn't want to compromise the newly built engine with any old bits of crap flushing around the system.
You get in this deep and you just have to keep spending...

I'm lovin my hole.

I've accepted this little expenditure as part of my engine rebuild cost when it happens. It may have been working OK so far but I completely agree I couldn't hook up a brand new surgically clean engine to it

Oh and what is the source for your horn grilles as they appear to be the right shape! My from Roger Bray are too short compared to the cracked corroded ones I took off.

Nick knows the truth abt my tank ..............kinda stainless steel gives u the clue!

It's looking great Paul, not long now!

Here's a few shots from the engine build (courtesy of Mr Fulljames, thanks Nick).

So what's the finish on the cases Paul
