Drank in the Sun Inn occasionally but usually too crowded - only drank in the Bulls Head when someone interesting was playing.

All a very long time ago though !!

Front bonnet & engine lid struts ...

. Since it's ~ 13 years since I last owned an early 911 I'm a bit out of touch with regards to the quality of some of the aftermarket parts. What is the general consensus on the best bonnet struts these days - or are they all a waste of time & I'm better off fabricating a fixed length hinged sup...

Initially, once the Perlon mats had been removed, it looked like this: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53634432257_9a257fcc68_c.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53634426557_bd84a69893....

Re: 1971 Burgundy 911T

- how did you get the dials out? Brendan - the '70-on cars did away with the retaining brackets/threaded studs on the rear of the instruments &, instead, utilised 'concertina' rubber seals to hold them in the dash - so they are much easier to remove/replace. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...

Re: 1971 Burgundy 911T

. Ok - time for a brief update ... - just to re-iterate, my current plans for the car are just to generally clean/tidy it up & add a few personal touches along the way - all without spending too much money ! As mentioned earlier, the interior was looking very 'tired' so, after replacing the fron...

Re: Tyre sizing?
