Thanks Eric for this confirming info. on the Large Font DFS with machined ends. I too have had a lot, 25+ of toolkits (have about six 911 kits right now). I have to admit I've not paid close enough attention to which kits the other two types of DFS came with but ALL the kits I've purchased have been for pre-1974 Porsches and it is true that fewer than, say, ~10% of my wrenches have non-machined ends BUT they do exist and I don't believe they came in post 1973 kits. That being said, I think we're all "on the same page." Thanks!

I just recently purchased a second travel kit (901 721 905 00) and it has a shop towel in it. However, it also has a couple items in it that I know didn't come with the kit. So, I started thinking more about if a Shop Towel came with a 911 travel kit; we, more or less, established a towel did NOT come with toolkits. So, I surfed around and actually did not find too much info on Travel Kits (maybe we should have dedicated pinned thread as there we LOTS of varieties of these kits) Anyway, I found a referenece that stated the contents of the Travelling (actually they are so labelled) Kit in the Picture Parts book. So I looked in my hard copy of the book (updated to 3/69) and, unless I overlooked it, there is NO shop Towel listed with any of the kits and the list looks VERY detailed and complete; even breaking down the contents for different kits of different model 911s. I DID SEE the Towel mentioned though for the 356 travel kits. Comments? Thanks!

Hi,
just a little help about two DFS that I have.
Is the bottom one a machined one ?
If so, being it a 17-19 mm instead of 18-19, can tell us something about the production year?
Thanks

@allen .. .
just in quick . . i do have the old pages,and content from the catalogue for a 912 travelkit,
but the towel - putzlappen - is mentioned, on the pic and I guess it was in it . .
Does the catalogue in the picture have a date? Maybe I missed it?
Sorry:
Image is from the catalogue July 1966 . .
