Hello everyone,

I've finally got round to registering and have already found the forum a great help. Restoring 911SC at the moment (it started as a bit of a service !! ) and have an 81 SC waiting for the garage (yes , impact bumpers but just practicing for the next project )

Have just agreed to buy a 911S 2.4 1972 off a close friend . I drove this car 22 years ago and its been gathering dust in a garage ever since. Yes it needs lots of work but should be worth the graft !

Will keep you all posted but need to finish 1 job at a time

Cheers

Wizzman

Welcome to the DDK :-) The more Northerners the better - do let us have some pics of your new 2.4S - they're common as muck around here :lol: :lol:
