Today I repaired the holes in the rear seat pad using the special flexible filler and vinyl textured paint.

Thanks Dean,
The windscreen is an insurance replacement and is what has prompted this little tidy up of the car.
It started with a chip! :lol:

Looking great, I like your dash repair. I think that there will be a few well restored 914 back on the road next year. They seem to be catching on, even Jay Leno is after one.

Thanks.I had been looking on and off since 1990 so I thought it was finally time to pull the trigger on a 914.
