Hello Ian,

Who is Nige? Is he close to here (Essex).

I may have found a starter... The Heat exchanger looks ok from underneath will have a better look in a minute.

Need reverse switch and starter motor...

steering wheel recover leather

Just got a wheel for my 14 yesterday at Stanford.

I'd like to get the wheel re-leathered if possible.

Any recommendations would be greatly received and likely price.

Thanks.

914 hea exchanger to heat divert pipes needed

I need the two ( and ) shaped pipes which go from the end of the heat exchangers to the heater diverter valves.

These are for a 1970 914 1.7 and I have SS heat exchangers and brand new heater diverters.

Any help would be most welcome...

I want to catch the last few minutes of summer... :-/
