Ok. After three years, my first 914 is nearly done. All stock 1.7L 1970.
Purdy. A project my son was supposed to do, yet.... 99% done by Dad. As long and tedious as it was, I'm about to do it again. Somewhere along the way I became enamored with this little Porsche orphan.... but I'm not a 1.7L guy. My crazy idea. 2.7L Boxster engine and drive train. Plus I need AC, Sacramento is too hot for me. Don't really want to do a Suby or Frankenstein conversion. I love the Porsche sound. Has anyone done this or attempted to do this? Would love some guidance before I bid on Salvaged Boxsters. |

Rich Bontempi At High Performance House in Redwood City CA has dozens of doors. Well, of anything actually. He doesn't give his parts away either, and shipping costs may be painful for something the size of a door.
Check the Classifieds BBS; you may find people closer to you selling doors, among other parts. Easier to use 73+ doors on a 73+ car; easier to use 70-72 doors on an early car. --DD |
