Thanks for clarifying that for me. I'm starting to think I might have a DOA unit from Pertronix. I gonna put the old stock points and see if it will start. David

Hey Stan, I just installed a Pertronix into my 2800cs and for the last couple of days I can't get my car to start. I was thinking maybe it's because I'm not getting TDC setting on my distributor but I've tried over dozen times reinstalling the distributor and still my car won't start. I was...

Thanks for the info. I'm gonna go look for the stamp on #1 cylinder. Currently my engine is running twin weber carbs and the distributor is a 002 unit. I didn't know that you could convert a CSI motor over to a carb engine. Is this possible? So is this why my car will not start after...

While trying to get my '71 2800CS to start after installing the Pertronix 1867A, I was looking at the timing window with the dot and while I was there I though why not look for the engine vin number too. Is the engine vin number the same as my vehicle vin on the top of the passenger fender? My...

I've tried several times at setting TDC with ball in window and crank mark and still I can't my car to start. Once it started but for less than a second. Took distributor out couple times and reset again with the two markings and even taking plug #1 out and using a long straw to check, and...

Just got the 1867A installed today, but only problem I got right now is that I made a mistake of removing the distributor to install. Now I don't know which position the rotor should be pointing at. I assumed that the distributors are similar to my air cooled VW's, which has a off centered...

Awesome shots! Love the photo of the yellow E9 in the glass.

Well my search is over and I finalized the purchase and picked her up on Friday. After sitting for over 6 years in my friend's garage, the engine shakes a little but starts right up fine. Drove it home after I got the classic vehicle plates from DMV. The A/C works and blows somewhat of a cold...

Got any pics of your 91 NSX? Man I loved my old 91 NSX but the mod bug was flowing too much my into my blood and was dumping so much money into it. I must of put over $30k into that thing and I had to sell it. And I took a big loss when I sold it for only $25k to an older gentleman from Utah...

Aloha to all, Newbie from Las Vegas, originally from Hawaii. Only seen an E9 once when I was younger living in the Bay area and I was in love with it. Are there any E9 owners in Vegas? Cause I have yet to see another E9 in the last 15 years of living here. I don't have an E9 but currently...

The antenna looks strange, is that the correct location at the front fender of driver side?

I've been looking for one but man this thing looks like crap. The doors look really bad and some body damage.

TheSamba my other favorite hangout! Man I never found anything when I was restoring my 64 beetle and now my new project 56 oval window beetle. The only find I had was god d@mn rust!:cry:

Beautiful E9! Great story as well. I'm on my search as well but haven't found one yet.
