Good afternoon all,
I've got my father's 914, a 2.0 from 1975. Even though it's never seen a winter, I have a pretty good hell hole going. It's to the point where if you lift the passenger side from the jack point, the door gap begins to widen. Interstingly, the jack point seems good. Anyway, is there anyone in the Detroit area you can recommend to fix this? I'm not looking for perfection - assume I've got a wife that hates the car and would be verry upset if I sank some big money into this (I know, a relative term - let's say more than $3,000.00.) I'll try to post a pic of the hole. Thanks for the input! Jon G. |

QUOTE(Harpo @ Sep 27 2013, 08:08 PM)  I would like to introduce you to Restoration DEsign http://www.restoration-design.com/mm5/merc...tegory_Code=914 It's funny, parts are easier to get now than ever. I can remember in the early 1980's ordering the little plastic piece that holds the visor the one on the far left passenger side, from the dealer. after a few weeks, the wrong part arrived. A few weeks later, the right part came in, the wrong color. A few weeks later, they sent us the first piece again. The problem now is no one even knows what a 914 is! |
