What's not to love..... Beautiful and one of those cars you can drive happily the rest of your life. New cars come and go, that is a classic that will always have incredible appeal.

It's a US-Spec 1983 Porsche 911SC which I just imported. It's going to be an ongoing project and I look forward to many happy miles (as soon as I get the aircon to work!)

Great pick-up! These old Porsche's are so much fun to tinker with.

Back home for less than a day before another trip, but I managed to replace the old heating hoses with new Aircraft Spruce piping. The old hoses were almost welded to the heat exchangers after 30 years of use.

Out with the old

Installing the MSD this week, and just placed an order for all new fuel system parts - filter, accumulator, pump, etc. Meanwhile, I'll probably rebuild the pedal cluster among other smaller mods which don't require parts

Give me a call, I wanna pass by and bum around watching you work like a donkey in the heat. I might hand you tools and stuff, but that's all I'm gonna do.

Done with the MSD install - took a while to figure out the wiring but ended up crimping male connectors on the MSD harness and attaching it to the existing PermaTune harness. Makes it easier to go back and forth should I choose to do so.
