Re: Project Blue Book
Morning All. Easter gave some time to shuffle along with the Project Blue Book build. All about the details now. First off Angus, Sam and the chaps at 'Greatworth Classics' have been moving at some considerable pace with the build. https://i.postimg.cc/ht49Y43f/CVIV0503.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/c1Mt...

Re: Project Blue Book

Re: Project Blue Book
Thank you evero much fellas. I really appreciate the comments! I have been busy in the garage with lots of things going on at the same time. But to get up to date, let's carry on with the Stereo install. I have to say it's a work in progress and by no means finished. There has been a lot to learn. h...

Re: Project Blue Book
Managed to get a bit of time in the garage. I thought I would try to finish up the washer system and last bit of the brown paper/ foil tubing. The original sytem hooked up the the spare tyre to get pressure to spit the water at the windscreen. So that wouldn't do. I managed to get a proper Porsche p...

On looking...

Re: Project Blue Book
Been quite busy in the workshop this last few days. Some time ago I posted up some images of a lovely 356 oil cannister that I had decided to repurpose into my oil vent and catch tank. Well it was on the back burner with all the other bits and bobs going on. I thought it was well time to finish this...

Re: Project Blue Book
Well engine and gearbox is over with Angus and the lads at Greatworth Classics. They have stripped both down for inspection and blasted and plated a lot of the components already. https://i.postimg.cc/kXgNvkjY/2023-12-11-15-08-45.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/fWKjXwv0/2023-12-11-15-08-50.jpg https://i.po...

Hi Neil,neilbardsley wrote: ↑Mon Oct 23, 2023 10:36 am Do you have clearance for the rain tray with the 912 air cans on? I thought about adding larger air filters to mine but they will not fit under the rain tray.
