... so whilst the engine is not playing ball, Mark turned his attention to the 6 speed gearbox for a quick change of ratios.

"You get by with a little help from your friends..."

Due to reasons outside of my control, this year has been a particularly testing one for myself and Ninemeister, so when a good friend of mine Boydy expressed an interest in buying my 964 project part way through we struck a deal which allows me to finish off the work that I planned and for him to invest further in the project and get the bodywork repainted to the quality it deserved to be. So without further ado, here is the car part-finished (with my spare engine fitted) waiting on collection. We'll no doubt be posting more photos whilst Boydy shakes the car down whilst patiently waiting on the new engine.

So sad to see it go, but so happy to see it (nearly) finished. Since it's not intended to be an exact 964RS replica I guess you could call it the first 9m64RS Touring - hence the new 9m bonnet badge.

Stay brave Colin,

Keep pushing on with Ninemeister and for sure you'll power out the other side

As you already know if it was easy you wouldn't be doing it

Thanks, your encouragement is much appreciated.
All I can say is that Ninemeister is on the right road now, just have one more obstacle to negotiate before I can press the pedal to the metal.....
