This is not a sales pitch. I'm sincerely asking for feedback on what we could do, or do better, in order to earn your business.
Even if it's not something I can fix, it would still be good to know. For instance, I realize a lot of people have a loyalty to certain vendor as a result of a long standing personal or business relationship. I go out of my way not to spam this forum with commercial posts so I hope this isn't viewed as objectionable. Brian |

I don't think it's you, it's 914s in general. They don't get driven enough for the wear items to wear out. Plus, if my ac unit poll is a good sample, half of the drivers are water pumpers now with the local parts place likely having FI parts for the newer engines on shelf. So what's left? 914 specific hard parts like door handles or ignition switches or rubber or sheet metal.
Then there is the restoration angle if you could provide rebuilt NLA parts, aftermarket NLA parts like 914rubber does, OEM parts at discount. Performance parts is a tough sell if you don't have a fan base to sell for you. Package deals might be a bonus. Say the bronze pedal bushing kit with the 2 pads and a gas pedal shipped for $$. And since you asked, the rockauto catalog works really well for me. Thou I found a hydraulic clutch setup searching for clutch master n slave on amazon and looking at the pics. |
