WHO TO TRUST?

After several months of research pending my 911 restoration i've received a fair bit of conflicting information and advice. Being a DDK newbie the question is: Whose replies to posts should you really trust, who are the fountains of all knowledge, the genuine Oracles who REALLY know early 911s? Don'...

1973 2.4E Engine Lid

Hi I'm just about to start the body restoration of my 1973 F Series German registered LHD 2.4E and need to source various body panels. The Haynes Porsche Data Book compiled by Marc Bongers states that my vehicle was originally fitted with an aluminium engine lid the same as the S model. Others I've ...
