The Windshield seal I named above is NLA but you can order this
at your Porsche Dealer. It will not deliever asap but your order will produce a backlog. My local Porsche Dealer told me that Porsche will let produce the seal if they have enough orders to see the need of this seal. I have ordered 4 seals. Wilco |

So, with the many people here, including degreed engineers... nobody has one good seal that we could use to get some chineese company to make us 500?
Doesnt anybody know anyone? Time to really attempt to fix this issue... Perhaps getting Panorama to help us... If we refuse to give up... perhaps we can get something done... George H is here now... How did he get some made years ago? CMon George, help a brother out... just tell us what we need to do... |

How did he get some made years ago? CMon George, help a brother out... just tell us what we need to do... We had a thousand of them made in China without the rubber and they had to be glued in across the top but were acceptable and cheap. We are currently producing the product again but now in India and we will have two thousand of them in a couple of months but without the steel in them. They will be cheap. The ones with the steel in them is currently being run in Ohio but he is having continual problems with the pieces vulcanizing together properly because of the steel in the one piece. I have invested over twenty five thousand dollars in tooling time and materials to make this fly and am hoping that any moment he will shout "Watson come here I need you!" Again I do not in any way want to be commercial on this site but want everyone to know that I am committed to this car and will not see it fade away because of the unavailability of parts. However I am not a rich man so I can only afford to make parts that return the investment so I will not go into the poor house! We make over 95 different parts for the 914 and have plans for many more. For example the 914 dash top pad is now in India being duplicated as well as little parts such as the factory shift knob tension bushing. Porsche is discontinuing these parts left and right and it is killing us. I shed a tear at no longer being able to restore a 914 the way I want to: All new factory parts. I have done it in the past and it was a very expensive but rewarding venture, AND it showed everyone just how costly a 914 restoration could be, yet it made a point: At that time the factory was very supportive and one COULD if the had enough crazy money, restore a 914 with all new factory parts. Conclusion? If these cars remain as wildly popular as they are now and become more valuable much like the 356 models, many more people will take up the call and produce parts for these precious pups. |
