    1965 Porsche 911 Wabasto heater

    Hi,

    I am in the middle of restoring my 1965 Porsche 911.

    heaters... I am also having trouble finding parts for this heater..
    Example: heater muffler and muffler pipe...

    Please let me know if anyone can help me...


    Thanks......

    Welcome to this board.

    Do a search, Series900 can supply the muffler, pipe and elbow.

    Raj,

    Thank you for the link with the photos of the webasto
    heater exhaust.. It is not easy finding good photos of this system
    installed with all the correct hardware...... Do you know anyone that
    is selling the muffler parts used or NOS?? Also , I know its not an easy
    system to work on.... But it has to work and it has to be perfect... I am
    not so concerned with restoring the sheetmetal as I will restore it myself...
    I have a shop in NJ...This is a system I have never worked on though...
    So it has become quite the challenge.... I have heard some good things and
    some not so good things regarding this heater system... I guess when all is
    said and done I will find out.....


    Thanks again,
    Pino
