There has been a halt in companies making tinware for 914/6. I have heard talk of production starting up from a few companies and would like to know what the latest information is.
Who is making them and when/where will they be available? |

We are nearly done with all five pieces. There is a fitment issue between two panels that needs to be addressed. (pictured) After that, the whole kit is ready! This has been quite a process. Its one thing to make a single part, but making five, and having them fit perfectly is very tedious. Not to mention that the originals dont even fit 100% perfect.
Also, all the wiring tabs will be welded on. Pete ![]() ![]() ![]() |
