PS: "dfink", is not my intention to 'hijack' your thread but since you sold your GT rear calipers, I simply wanted to let others know I have a similar set. "dfink", do you have any other 914-6 GT parts for sale? |
No problem with the post but please keep the following in mind. The set that just sold was a very early set likely used to support one of the original 12 cars. The set you present in the picture are a later conversion. This is indicated by the spacers. The early calipers used "M" spacers which worked but did not fit well. Later special spacers were produced that better followed the outline of the caliper. There are likely other less obvious differences. Please note however these simply indicate some history with the calipers. The will both function for the intended purpose.
And yes we also have a set of early/early "S" front calipers that are correct for the Factory GT. We will also likely have additional set of restored GT rear calipers. This set however nearly identical to the set that just sold is not from the original batch. The casting are from 3 and 4 and we just had them converted. They were however converted by PMBPerforance and they do an outstanding job in replicating the originals. I would expect these to sell for less than the $1800 that the "Factory" set brought. Remember there were only 12 original factory cars. And I believe 24 dealer conversions with factory parts. Everything would be a 3rd party conversion.
