you have to admit that before the internet their catalog was a damn good one. the exploded parts diagrams were very informative. some of the prices were weird. the assorted used fasteners/bolts by the ice scoop ( 2 for $12) were interesting. the duplicate 916 engine lid, "part sold rough", @ $375 + shp wasn't much of a bargin. phil haun told me how he made his. a "how to buy a 914" guide for $12.50.
"The Renegade Club is a recently formed entity, very active on the internet. Club membership involves you in both fun activities as well as promotion and preservation of the marque (which we all want to see). Interesting articles, online chat ", (what the is that ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ), "cars and parts for sale as well an annual get togther are some of the special things offered by the the club. The Rennegade Club can be contacted on the internet at : www.dgi.net/914/.". think they knew they were sealing their fate? kevin |

Credit is given on their catalogs, I have them all. Just like a shinny lure with big hooks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I really don't think AA or PP (I have purchased from Pelican and was very pleased) online catalog are very good. Functional yes but good not really.
I purchase parts for my MGA from a company called Moss Motors. They are second to none as far as I'm concerned. 40 to 50 year old cars and they have damn near everypart you need (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) and the prices are what I would consider reasonable. They also put out "real" paper catalogs that are glossy and pretty (HOOK). If the guys at AA or PP are watching this hey check out a real online web site. This is how it should be done. Moss Motors Just my .02. Todd 1960 MGA 1973 914 1.7L |
