Hi All,
After 40 years of wanting but never having the chance to own one, yesterday I finally picked up my first Porsche and I can't begin to describe how excited I am.
It's a 1972 911T that was originally owned by a gentleman by the name of Kurt Schweickhard of Hollywood, Ca. The car now resides in Australia having been purchased by another Aussie forum member in 2006 and it was subsequently converted to RHD using the clip and dash from a '73S (apparently those who know say you can't tell it has been converted).
The car came with a raft of service records back to 1980 from "Andial" which is nice to have.
Anyway, about the car, it is a matching numbers car with original engine and gearbox but both not currently installed in the car. The car is fitted with a "rod rod" engine built by another forum member Randy Wells (specs below), suffice to say the car is quick enough. It is also very clean and straight and I look forward to doing a few little jobs to it (I've already replaced the alloy dash trim).
Cheers,
Harry.
