Hey guys and gals, we are trying to figure out when Porsche changed from plastic rivets on the outer rocker covers to metal rivets. If you have untampered covers, please let us know. Build date/model year and if they are plastic or metal.
Thanks for the help. Tod |

We have several original cars that have alluminum rivets it the rockers.
2 74's, 1 73 early, and a 76. Pat Garvery said his 72 came with white plastic. George, what would be the reason for taking the rocker panel covers off a non AC car prior to sale? George those original gems you have in your show room, the outer rocker cover rivets are all plastic on all of those? |
