Hi performance house, Redwood City, ca
I needed a bumper and found it, but the owner gave me a tour. 3 floors of everything 914. He has many 914 under tarps. He claimed to have dismantled 400 914. Also 912 parts.

They're pricey, but they have just about anything. Have bought several items from them off Ebay. They are pretty honest and throw you a bone here and there. I bought the panel that covers the master cylinder and steering rack. They included one that had the seals in good shape on both sides as a bonus. The ad only showed a metal item. Good guys.

Is this the one?

Bought a set of NOS 2.0 heat exchangers for a reasonable price off their eBay store.

I don’t know Rich well, but a solid seller.

Ah, yup, that’s it. I’ve run across his eBay store in my searches… extremely proud of his NOS collection and his shipping prices look like international shipping lol!

I did see a few parts that are tempting though.

I just bought an NOS 2.0 TPS and the shipping includes insurance and signature… Rich appears to insist that the parts are protected when shipped.

You can call him. He really has everything

Louis his helper took me on a tour. There are 3 floors separated into engine cases, heads, interior pieces, body parts, windows etc. there is so much to see that it’s a bit overwhelming.

The first time i toured his warehouse some 20 years ago, someone made a joke about "You need a driver side door? What year? What color?" and Rich would go upstairs and come back with the door in the correct color.

You need to get him to talk about his early racing days, he's got some awesome stories. And his yellow 1.8L race car is something else.
