Great looking car, always loved these and would quite fancy one at some point, despite obviously being better / more modern the recent V8 cars seem less special.

Reminds me of that Athena poster of the tennis player lifting half her skirt up. Very nice :smile:

If that was my garage mostly I wouldn't be in my house.

Showtrax flooring, it came from when we were running the motorpsort team in Gt racing and kept it for when I could build the garage to put it in :)

lovely - always wanted one myslef. Magnum has a lot to answer for (images drifting away, two wheels on the grass verge)

Does it need any engine work to convert back to Euro spec? Understand older 911s were de-tuned and also strangled with "anti-smog gear" (airpump to dilute exhaust gases!)

We were lucky with the car and after a lot of history tracing found out it was a full LHD Euro spec imported to Washington, US in 81 and so no work to do when coming back to UK apart from removing ugly marker lights Surprised not to find cats, big bumpers etc but very happy

Will post some picks up next week on its trip to the trimmers
