red wire goes directly to the battery. (the yellow wire switches the solenoid; the solenoid switches the BIG current that runs the starter.)
the gauge bezel is crimped on and can be removed by v-e-r-y carefully prying it away on the back - small screwdriver, little at a time, round and round. patience is a virtue. that's a Talbot mirror, installed for some reason with the sunshade upside down. it's a period-correct aftermarket mirror for late 60's. AFAIK they were never fitted to a production Porsche but they were popular aftermarket accessories. in perfect or excellent condition they could bring a few bucks from the vintage guys. i couldn't consider it a lost treasure, and there doesn't seem to be a lack of them in good condition. |
