Re: 356 big European Trip

There will be a trip in the 914 later this year and something bigger for next year As a footnote. The only repairs ...

Re: 356 big European Trip

An introduction to Antwerp from a local. My colleague Sven works in Madrid but travels back to Antwerp each Friday. He was born and raised in Antwerp but married a Spanish girl. He took us through the Saint Anna Tunnel to see the town from another view. He also showed us the optical illusion that th...

Re: Assessing an unknown engine

How can you rebuild an engine without cleaning it and leaving broken piston in it? Pistons changed without splitting the case and they thought they got away with it?

What do you think caused the oil starvation? Sealant or broken piston?

Drove to Antwerp. Pass Spa Motor racing circuit and Liege (for the cycling fans). Wonderful rolling long hills. Now in a coffee shop Image

Re: 356 big European Trip

And I found the cheapest item in the shop, with Porsche on it. 7 EUR for a reusable bag. I think that is my last visit to the Porsche Museum. We moved through pretty quickly as I was aware of most of the cars that interested me. I think for early cars the Hamburg Prototype Museum was better or maybe...
