I am interested in the concept of trading services for 914 gear. Any ideas? Criticisms? Anecdotes?

David, how far are you willing to travel? driving.gif biggrin.gif

Swapping is the best deal in town.
The best part is ya get a chance to get in relationship with somebody new.
Many gifts have come my way from getting to know people that swap parts.
Tis absolutely the best way to create a fun hobby that only has an upside. Do it bro... Cause you will learn from it..!!!!!!!!!!

I have a spare 1.7 motor with FI and brain (core) I'll swap ya for a set of spacers for the front & rear wheels of my teener and throw in a pedal board. We will be even..!!!!!!
Maybe ya need a targa top or back glass?

How about a deck lid (trunk) and an ass load of wiper motors in ill repute?

Send me a mail with your needs if ya need used parts. I have no Bling. But I got a bunch of da leftovers from too many parts cars.

I live in Costa Mesa. Bout three hours drive if ya cruise. Cruise on down my way via PCH on a weekend and pick up whatever ya need..!!!!

Whadya think?

Hmmmm....I pay sales taxes on stuff I buy.....that's it.....stuff I sell or make at work is pretty much tax free....I'm in debt to my eyeballs and deduct everything.....I haven't paid Federal and State tax since I bought a house and had kids.....

I trade all the time....if the transaction is out of State....screw CA.... :finger2:

Free trade? I like that Idea wink.gif biggrin.gif

I do trades all the time. Once with Martin Baker,just last week w/Mike Moore. There have been others.I trade my extra parts for things I THINK I need. Been doing it for last 6/7 years. Here and on the PELICAN site. Have a feeling of trust among all these other 914 addicts.




Always up for a good trade! beerchug.gif
