Following a long winter no progress had been made on the 912 for months... until last weekend..

Determined to get it finished before the summer ands (or starts) I have started assembling the bumpers, lights and re-installed the new petrol tank. Also slowed up after trying two different sets of over rider bumper to body seals which neither fit correctly or look right.

The next stage is to get it started for a moral boost. The 912 was running nicely before the paintwork last year was started so uncertain why it won't fire currently. Lack of willing helpers recently has meant I can't determine if it is spark issue or something else accidently disconnected whilst masking up the engine bay. Also need an extra pair of hands to get the bonnet re-attached.

Also wondering the best option for the front number plate bracket. The previous plate was screwed on directly so don't want to go down that route again.

Will put up photo's of progress soon

Cheers

I suggest posting in the Vehicles for Sale board with a link to this, although I think forum rules require a price.

Windscreen now in :)

And also got the experts to re-install the rear windscreen as we could not get it sitting correctly. Money well spent...

Next step to fit the bonnet and rear pop out windows
