    I just had to jump on here and say that your build thread for this car is what made me decide to buy a project SWB 911. I can't believe the skill that went into restoring this car. Great job, and beautiful car. Someone is getting a very cool car for much less than it would cost to get this level of restoration. I wish I were in the position to buy it myself.

    Thanks for the compliment!

    Couple items to update... Leakdown signaled some loss on 2 and 3 so the valve covers were pulled and all the heads got torqued. Valve job while in there. Nice and tight now. Dropped trannie enough to replace O ring on speedo angle drive. She's a screamer
    Price drop to $61,500
    You will like this little SWB car...

    I found nearby storage...and I am no longer space challenged.

    And I no longer need to sell Axle, thanks for all the interest.
