Dave's 1971 1302 Not-So-Secret, Secret Project Build

[owdlvr]

The boys were working hard today and managed to seam seal the whole body, weld up any spots I opened up sandblasting and sprayed the gravel-guard undercoat in the fender wells. Sounds like they managed to give most of the body its first sanding as well.





Based on their emails I figured I'd better get cracking on the pan, so a buddy and I picked it up from storage today. Amazing how quickly the mess happens. Started planning on how I'm going to fit the 901, and will probably end up with a tonne of questions.




First off, none of the 901 threads show this piece attached to the side of the trans. What is it, how do I remove it?


Will probably remove the angle adapter, but leave the gear inside...just in case I need it later for speedo or rally computers. Selector shaft seal needs to be replaced though.


Are there any options for the reverse switch besides a $90 Porsche part?
