Hi, Just got my first 914. a 1971 with a 1.7. Has been parked in a garage for the past 7 years, body appears to be in decent shape with some minor rust spots. Have not found any rot in the usual spots. There are Deltorto 3012 carbs on it, I am trying to source a gasket set for them and can't seem to locate any. Any help would be appreciated. TIA JIm

As far as picts, I usually downsize the picts to smaller size/resolution using a free program I downloaded. Then browse to select the picture 'choose' button, place your cursor where you want it before or after any text or by itself, then hit the button 'add this attachment'. You have a size limitation for all the picts you add.
Hope this helps. Dave |
