This should be interesting to some needing this rare to find seal.
Ebay item # 300072947535
Old 914 windshield top seal rubber, the one that is unobtainable I have heard. This one is used and was pulled from a 73 so it says. Cracks and holes in it too.

I have no connection to this item other than seeing what it fetches. Any guesses?
Just posting because others wanting one of those may not have seen.

TCB.

Mike - Dude, I have been paying attention too (but I will hold on to my good one for my car). Your primo used seal is worth someone comming over to your house and getting your engine running - or swapping in a good 1.7. Either task is in the $200-$300 range. Of course, the labor charge is going to make this mean you better grill a mean BBQ to cover labor charges (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I can see it now "Want to Trade: windshield/targa seal for running 914"
Ya never know, it might work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Mine is NOT a used windshield top rubber seal. It is new. It came from AA in December 2000 and has been kept in a closet in my bedroom.
It is the better seal according to an expert source description given to me I can't name but who knows that AA had some of those metal inserted ones as well as the reproductions on their shelves and bins back in 2000.
I was offered $500.00 for it but got stymied on the delivery method. I had planned on a real time, in person delivery, to assure money in hand and rubber seals were a bona fide, handshaking, done deal.
History lesson. I didn't pay a cent for it. My box of rubbers was a gift to me that I never have used and I wasn't planning on a sexual reaming to anyone wanting them but your idea of giving for work done to get it running is hilarious but heck, why not if someone really needs it. Trade for a running 914? Better. LOL
Seeing the Dr. 914 reply following yours says that some type of these windshield top rubber seals will be on the market by Spring so I might do something dumb and keep them in the closet. I will never use them.
