Re: 28 years later: Finding and buying back my old 72 Squareback
I use a bit of liquid rubber gasket sealer just to hold the seals in position whilst reassembling, haven't had any leaks since.

I'm not quite that bad, I only have 29 of which 11 are unopened.
I'm invited to a Glenfarcas tasting on Zoom this evening.

Porsche 944 staggered polished Teledials (to get the 8" rears to fit under the wings meant swapping to short axles with CSP disc conversion and rebuilt gearbox...)
