I've been watching that part for years. I spoke to Rich about it in 2023 but the shipping cost killed it. It was a little more then half the cost of the part to ship it coast to coast.

I’m surprised it’s that much. I shipped a much bigger, heavier pallet of parts x-country last year for $800. Tomorrow, I’m shipping a 3.6 engine x-country on a 4x4 pallet for $475.

I can't recall the trucking co but they charged for the sq ft & weight of the pallet.
They couldn't stack on it so that was one thing, insurance, and home delivery was extra cost. Then there was the fees that they never mention til you get the bill of landing. Not only that but I was also being charged for the pallet and the time it took the guy to get the part on the pallet and strap it down. I kid you not. I just walked away at that point.
I wouldn't mind adding it to my collection of NOS parts and maybe someday I will but I just cant justify the crazy shipping costs.

Someone local would have to buy it and then assist with the shipping.
Napa Steve helped me and a 914 friend of mine get him a set of seats for his other Porsche. Steve went far out of his way to help and I’m not suggesting calling him but sometimes there are people who will help out when a companies policies make it difficult for the average guy.

I have that exact piece. Not NOS I scabbed it but aside from the paint looks identical. It was a fair bit of work, especially since like in this example no one wanted to buy it due to shipping it.

Thanks, but I have a complete front end, minus the windshield. So most of this part would be redundant.
