They're also in the Member Vendors section on here & their banner ad pops up on the top & bottom of the pages on here in the rotation. Make sure to mention you're a member here when you order parts in case they offer a discount, but here's RD's 914 parts Link to make it easy:
http://www.restoration-design.com/Merchant...tegory_Code=914

Members & advertisers on here & 914club.com, TheSamba.com (Porsche section of their classifieds), ClubNARP.com, etc. also sell NOS, used parts; & Performance Products/Automotion, Pelican, Sierra Madre Collection, TC'sGarage.com, AutoAtlanta, PMB, etc. (all have websites, some banner ads & member vendors here), & Porsche sell new and some repro parts (latter not at Porsche dealers, & PCA members get 20% off at dealers 2-3x a year).

Also, look up Mikey914 (914Rubber in banner ads) as Mark is near you in Portland & has most of the rubber seals & many misc. parts you'll need, and you could probably coax him down your way with a 6er to look over both 914s & tell you what needs replacing. He repros most of the NLA rubber bits.

As for brakes - don't D-around, just send them to Eric Shea at PMB for his rebuild/resto & some Porterfield R4S pads, and his PMB lists a lot of parts too (also member Vendor & banner ads here).

Tangerine Racing has replacement stainless steel fuel lines for the tunnel, to replace the plastic ones - if you're going that far (also member vendor & banner ads).

Geez - I could go on & on (and usually do.....ergo: "TMI...."), but just post up a source for what you need as you go along, and everybody will chime in with all sorts of options and advice! These folks on here are really great! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Sounds like Copper Brown Metallic is going to be correct, it's a 76 color and with the "98" in the door could have been ordered. Looking forward to the door jamb pic.


Ferg, he did another separate topic post with those pix a couple of days ago, in the Garage IIRC.

Mike, maybe you can post cross links here to there, & at the other back here, for everybody to find your pix, etc. more easily? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Just copy the url/link in your browser box at the top & past into a reply - or ask your kids the techie stuff, like the rest of us wankers do when we get stuck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

See attached pic...912/912 E Copper Brown Diamond Metallic, hopefully this is it? Thanks


Man, that 914 will look so schweeet when it's all repainted fresh in that color & done! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Ooops, & I forgot to mention evil-bay (eBay) - there's a vendor on there who goes by Lionel, who is actually at AutoAtlanta, and sells off the secret stash of new, NOS & used 914 parts. IIRC he has a full Hell Hole/Wheelwell/Long assembly - if you need to go that far. If you do a search on eBay for 914, then his will come up on some of the stuff, plus you can put yourself down for daily notices off of that search.

Hey WCR guys/gals - are we in SoCal or CA somewhere for 2012? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
... mine may just be ready by then!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

You can send you cars up my way and I'll give you a hand. Keep in mind you might not get them back for a few years, but they'll look great.
