    Dumb Newby Question (and not the last one!)

    How can I determine which parts are still available from Porsche? I have the PET catalogue so I can find part numbers, but I can't seem to find a source for ordering directly from Porsche or at least perusing their parts that are available. I have a '74 Carrera. Thanks for any help!

    You can't order directly from Porsche, you need to go through the dealer.

    Stoddard Porsche, Willoughby, Ohio...and Sunset Porsche, Beaverton, OR are and have been the most enthusiast friendly and helpful dealers. Sunset rivals the big mail order parts houses on prices on many items.

    You can also go to a site like Pelican and type in your part numbers from the PET. If they are no longer available, they will be listed as NLA.
    If still available, you can decide where you'd like to buy them from.

    I am not sure how reliable the part number check with Pelican can be. 930 turbo brake calipers are listed as NLA. I bought a new set from my local official Porsche centre
