I would start with the orange book also known as the workshop manual, available from amazon as a first step.

There is also the workshop manual available online from 912bbs links in the lone star section.

PET on the official Porsche website is also very good as a reference guide.

Then there is this forum to ask questions

Restorers guide to authenticity is a good place to start by Brett Johnson

+1 on Brett Johnson's Restorers Guide to Authenticity.

Plenty of great threads here in the restoration section to trawl through.

Also worth having a read through Darryl's '66 912 resto http://www.darrylsgarage.com/912/912.htm

+1 for Daryl's resto thread and the guys/girls on here are pretty helpful, read as many threads as possible
