I'm also interested in the 74 seats. I'm in California.
do you still have the blue set?'74 seats have a horizontal stitching. I suppose these are mid model seats. Early seats had vertical stitching and a simple headrest wih no ears. Mid mid model seats had vertical stitching and a headrest with 'ears'. Late models had horizontal stitching and a headrest with 'ears'.
do you still have the blue set?
Ok, thanks, certainly let me know. may just send them south and have them redone.- what if anything do you know about the wood repair guy in europe? Have you personally had any experience with dash pad repairs- A/C console re-vinyl?I'm scouring the boards but haven't mastered the format-lastly -Wallowthesch- pretty much it for trunk pans?Thanks!! any help appreciated
Thank you for the information, sadly I need the dash wood and lower, while mine is all there it's delaminated, pretty must held together by the vinyl, my dash pad was replaced years ago with a 74 that has hole in it for EGR warning, not sure why it was put in in 1979, ok I'll give them a try and I'll post I'm searching for good dash pad if 2k is realistic dash pad repair-I'll try bela22 and the moniker parts hoarder does it mean you've got stuff for sale or just collecting it for that day? I was hoping these cars appreciated as much as my 911S--- maybe soon though I'm never selling so meaningless. Again thank you for the reply and #2270226 will soon be back on the road!Here is what I know, mostly from my addiction to the internet...
@bela22 is highly regarded on the forum. See the feedback section for details. "Just Dashes" in Oregon is *the place to have your dashboard repaired. Expect to pay upwards of $2K though. You can find a very good used dashboard for $1K to $2K and that includes very good wood. You can piece it together for significantly less if you work at it.
Local upholstery shops can do the console sides. It is fairly straight forward for professionals. I haven't seen anyone duplicate the factory "stitch", which is really molded vinyl. A plain non-french-stitch looks good enough for a show car.
W&N started selling trunk pans about a year ago. There is also a company in Poland that sells them. All of their parts are painted blue. An employee/owner is a member here.
