After reading a number of posts on the main forum & seeing that this part & that part are NLA, I was thinking (dangerous!) - let's put together a list of those parts that are NLA & get ideas on how to deal with it. Ex: apparently the gas pedal is now NLA. What's to be done when you need a replacement?
Many of these parts are important to both concours & regular 914 people. So how do we deal with thier non-availability? I'll nail this thread if the feedback is worth it. I think we can all benefit from it. Guess I've lost touch since I haven't had to buy many parts for some years (stocked up in the 80's). But, some of the basics are NLA these days & how do we deal with it? |

Rich, I'm calling fully restored something you could enter in a concourse and get damn near full points for. I think there are a lot of little costs that add up. $15k would build you a damn nice driver, but carpet from Morphenspectra ain't german squareweave. (not bagging on James at all, his carpet is a great value). A crack or two in the dash top would be okay for a nice driver, but not for what I'm calling fully done.
