At resent my car is being supported by a team near Glasgow but I would like to go local if possible.
Can anyone recommend someone who knows his classic 911 onions close to Aberdeen?
Thanks

Support = fix / maintain?

Team = mechanic / garage?

Gary White at Turriff looks after mine and did a great job on the engine swap

Lime wink




( It started 1979 SC - Body stripped, backdated with '73 RS panels and trim and painted RS Viper green. That was all done for me by 911 Classic down in deepest Sussex. Then I wanted it to go a bit quicker so bought Raymond Boyd's old Autofarm race engine which was on twin triple choke carbs and Gary did the swap. We put in an LSD, Comp clutch and short throw gear linkage as well. Brakes and Suspension are Std. at the moment )


It's not the fastest thing on the road/track but great fun!

What's the spec on yours?

It's a pretty standard 3.0 180hp non sport, in triple back

Again, mine is not the fastest but loveable non the less.

Did you tweak your wheels, chassis? Is it road legal?

Liking the SC - neat shape!

Yes - mine is fully road legal (or will be when I put less bald tyres on!) I recall power was about 220-240 on Ricky Gauld's rolling road when he set up the Webers which is not huge, but it's a good bit lighter than a std SC .......until I get in to it wink

Gary White is on 01888 560590
