Cleaned the place

i finished the car about a year ago.
but the last few weeks I started sewing the seats up in italian leather...and put them in yesterday for a drive-fit.
Current long term ownership: 63 Cab, 71 911, 74 914
Figured I'd post a pretty picture and a cool video. tom1394racing sold me an old T-tach, which was sent off to John Bell for refurbishment and face conversion to 10k, and I installed in the car today. Think it was two weeks start to finish. Both guys are class acts.
Perfect day to do the tach swap after dinner and go for a drive with my eldest.
Here is the tach in action. I didn't think I'd be a fan of the 10k tach, but it is much easier to see 7k.
And my favorite co-pilot pretending she is the driver.

I always liked the action on this type of tach.

Nice one!
As John found out, I am trying to neurotically balance a desire for the car I want to drive vs the car I want to sit in. I learned to drive in a long hood, so every time I drive it is a reminder of my grandmother sitting in the passenger seat yelling at me not to ride the clutch. So yes, there are better options out there, but silver dot. I joked with John that he needs to make it so the needle bounces for 30 seconds after each shift, otherwise its not authentic to me.

It's been two and a half years since the body and paint was finished and it's been in storage since then... Now that I have a garage built to get on with the re-assembly, I finally brought it home!
Nice to have it join the Wills and the Peugeot... a little more work to go on the garage project too.
Had to pop the restored H1's in to give it a happy face! (also gives me a happy face... thanks Mr. Audette)
Cheers,
Jones...

Very busy days ...
Biancaneve is in the process of been made roadworthy again following many months of storage. Following a failed MoT last year, we need to replace front shocks, review carburation and some minor stuff. I invested some time in this recent rainyday ☔ in fitting nice but otherwise useless seat belts ... the local motor authorities didn't like Biancaneve racing harnesses �� ...

Meanwhile, also our 1974 Carrera 2.7 is in need of TLC ... a more complex situation requiring descending the full engine ... the usual slippery slope ... not sure we can see her on the road soon ...
