I love it.

Awesome Pics RS glad you were able to get out today, sorry to hear about your dad. Mine turns 80 on the 6th so I want to enjoy days like that with him.

Planning on picking up our 68 912’s 5 speed up from the shop on our return trip this next week end to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Goin to Burt and Dick Rutan’s birthday bash!!!! and figured it would be a good time to pick the ol trani (not the dress wearing type) in Bend, OR. It would be fun to get the 912 back on the road in all of its three shades of patina.

This is the 78 SC’s engine that I need to check every single bolt a shop previously touched. Too much to list all of the screwed up things I found.


This is the 68 912 the trans getting rebuilt is from. This pic was after a particular heavy wet snow collapsed the carport it was under two winters ago. Transmissions are beyond my Peter principle. I would love to learn but under the tutelage of a transmission Jedi Master, and not me banging away with spanners.

The day I trailered her home from my parents ranch before they moved.
