Just another new guy with alot of questions. But first many thanks again for all the replys I got on my last post when my wet car would'nt start. O.K. here they are.
1. Do cars that did'nt come with fog lights have the brakets to mount them behind the grills? 2. My 73 came with a short console for a/c, the vinyl on the sides has torn and the what I would call electro stitching is letting go on the other parts of the console. Does anybody recover these? 3. Will the distrb. and ecu for a 71 1.7 work on my 73 2.0.? 4. My seats are black with cloth inserts, they need to be recovered. Are leather seat covers avail. or would they have to custom made. From my catalogs I see upholstry runs about $225.00 a seat for the reg. vinyl. 5. Do I need to install the copper looking bellows therm. on the car in a mild climate like Dallas? 6. My car came with fac. front and rear sway bars but the rear has had the end links removed. I have heard even the race cars don't use the rear bars ?? comments??? 7. I'm an old vette guy and have saratoga tops on my cars in the past. I remember a top for 914's in the catalog are they ever seen used and and if so are they astronomical??? Fingers getting tired, all I can think of for now. Thanks for the Help.... James B. |

I'll answer what I can:
4. I found a guy up here in McKinney that recovered both of mine in basket weave leather for about $650. You can see them at the upcoming 914 breakfast. 5. I don't have mine installed, but I hardly ever run in the winter. You should be more worried about if you need an external oil cooler for the summer. |
