Yes I recently bought Merv's LHD USA 68
Merv has done a lot of great work on the car but I will put a different spin on it taking it back to a more original look ...gee there is a surprise.
I have already sourced 5 chrome steel wheels correctly dated to re install on the car. Currently being re-chromed in the USA and they will be expensive to ship as they are heavy!!
I have re-installed the wooden wheel instead of the stacked Momo and purchased a bat wing horn push from Chris Fryer (thanks Chris).
Paintwork on the car is very nice, as most of you know Merv had it fully repainted, I will do some work on the chrome and anodising to bring it
up to the same std as the rest of the car.
Needs a correct colour headlining and visors currently they are all black and the inside needs a bit of a lift.
It has BF Torino seats with red/white/black pepita, I have the comforts as well and may get them retrimmed in
B/W pepita......may is the operative word.
Nicest 901 box I have ever driven with.
I had my first drive today, it didn't go well as only 5 cylinders firing, something electrical I think, maybe fouled a plug as it has been sitting for a month or so and
didn't start so well guess I will find out tomorrow or Monday at Cairns Classic Porsche Services if I can't figure it out.
