Are there any "regular" early (1969 early) parts that I should stock up spares for?

[H.G.P.]

Are there any "regular" maintenance items that I should start to stock up on due to possible NLA or coming NLAs? (i.e keep spares for)

I ask because since the rebuild last year nothing (except oil changes) has come up.

Spark plugs don't look like they'll ever be a problem (I hope).

How about dizzy cap?, rotor, or even points?

Also, ask this on another thread, what about pulley seal? flywheel seal?, tranny seals? I believe my flywheel seal is NLA

(I've already found that the CV flange is NLA, but I guess this is not a regular maintenance item (or is it)?)

Thanks

i don't see dizzy stuff ever becoming a problem
it's a 6 cyllinder cap , with points, it's not 911 specific gear
any 6 cyllinder car has used those for a long time

seals, that's another thing i can't see as beeing a problem
there's company's that make seals, and have large stocks
all you need to do is tell em what size, and they'll get as much of them out of the warehouse as you want or can carry...
PET actually lists the size of every seal :
69 flywheel seal
65x86x10...
not a problem

the maintenance and wear and tear things won't go NLA anytime soon... at least not in the real market, Porsche might have some things go MLA, but there is enough aftermarket for these cars that will provide the goods...

and then there's later year cars that can be used to upgrade or replace things with if early stuff becomes a problem...

at worst, little tidbits , trim and detail stuff will be harder to score
but not the maintenance stuff...not even the engine stuff.

i do not see a problem, at all

I tried to look up the Pelican seals for early 1969, and they have one for the flywheel as listed as "undersized." NLA

But thanks for the information, most encouraging.
