Had the windshield installed today. Big difference in appearance. One more thing that leads us closer to the finish line. It definitely gives it a finished look. B pillar pads, inside rear view mirror, visors. and pad up next. I'm tempted to have the boys push me around the block just to make me feel like I'm actually driving.Attached Image

Nice car Jim. Could you please post a side shot of the new windshield to show the profile of the curvature at the top?

Thx

Here are some shots of the side of the windshield. It's kind of difficult to see the curvature at the top. I'm going to check the windshield on my white car and see if the curvature is the same or more pronounced. The windshield on my white 914 is original to the car. I'll try to check it out tomorrow and report back with the results. Jim.

Here are a couple of side shots of the original windshield on my white 914. Seems to be the same curvature of the one on the orange car. JimAttached ImageAttached Image

Jim,
Thanks for checking both cars, especially since your white one has the original glass.

The reason I was asking is because I remember reading about some of the new glass having less curvature but I had no frame of reference. At some point I'll replace mine and since you had just installed the Porsche glass in the orange, I was curious. Is the glass in the orange one NOS or a recent Porsche Classic part?

I recently bought the verticle sail panel trim and eventhough is says Porsche and Made in Germany, the shape on the inside at the bottom is not the same - I'm still trying to determine if I going to use it or not.

It didn't look like old packaging for the windshield. I would say it was probably Porsche Classic. I had to work a little on my sail panel trim as will. So much so that I damaged one and ordered another one. I believe it was $150.00. Another expensive lesson learned. Jim.

Although the windshield is in, it's not yet in the car. I waited about two months to get it. I'll let you know if it was worth the price and the wait. I also attached a picture of the NOS air leaner box. I gave the old one to Kent for helping me out. Now that I know how to post pictures, you guys are in trouble. Jim

Done. Installed and gone. Worked great in the shop here. Don't know if the owner's had a chance to do much testing.

And with my recent retreat from product sales, the only way to get one of these is to have me do the install. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) The existing drawings and part numbers may become available if I ever decide how to distribute all that.



Jim, do you have any other photos of the underside of the NOS air cleaner, specifically the small pipe that extends straight down from the back center of the main body? I have one I need to replace that tube/metal support on and need a good reference. Since your's is NOS, it certainly qualifies.
