aah but just think of all that stuff you can smuggle now Good work fella912uk wrote:welding in a new smugglers box isn't fun.
My 911 has a few bits n bobs to be done over the next couple of evenings/weekends, both front wings are coming off over the weekend, new wing to door jamb plates being welded in (not by me, i'll just be doing the monkey work, prepping etc.), correct 71 engine lid/silver grille to go on and be painted plus some little areas need attention, also plan on 3M'ing/Waxoiling inner wings front/rear, and if time allows a strip and re-seal the underneath of the floopan... and if time allows, strip the interior and do the Por-15 thing inside as well.
not much really then

That new Argon mix is stunning...... I have forgot how good it was compaired to Co2
Well that's all the welding on the 65 car now all done to my standard so who every buys it knows it's been done right. that's the front supenstion panel , a few area's under the car nr the front pan
Rear torsion area repair very little and a new smugglers box floor and sides one that proved to be a little tricky but got there and it all lines up perfect very pleased once linshed it will all go and look orginal. That section of floor was thanks to Jim at easy and thanks to US customs for not taking it off me when I check in my hand lugage...
Brakes next
Wheels in Bright silver at the mo.. new tyres to go on it..
got to buy a new Master cylinder not worth rebuilding the old one..
got to get this steering rack bush ( davidppp on the case thanks )
should then be back on the road..
Oh steam clean the tank and reseal it..
I should have done all this last year I think Jo will ban me from buying another project cos I said I would have this done in a few weeks.. 18months ago
so looking for a garage I can hide a future project in , in the Southampton / Portsmouth area
