Anyone got a spare? Literally any condition considered, as it'll be leather covered.
Many thanks

Copied from the 914 section:
Are you looking for a 380mm wheel ?
I'm fairly sure I have a few spares...
I'll check tomorrow - floods permitting.

Thanks Andy: yes it's a 380 I'm after.
Don't forget the following:
Flares (inshore)
Lifejacket.
Compass and charts.
VHF radio.
Radar reflector.
Liferaft.
and most importantly.....
Suncream

Barry, one's just come up on the Early 911 Registry in the States, loads of money though:

I still feel bad about that door you missed

Unfortunately one of my neighbours crashed into my car this morning severely damaging the front o/s wing

...
By the time I'd pulled it out enough to clear the tyre & to be able to open the driver's door the rain had arrived again & the M4 was jammed.
I've gone through the steering wheels I have at home (about 30-35 !!

) & found that I have six 380mm Porsche wheels but they're all leather-rimmed 914/6 wheels (as fitted to the 2.7 RS) so wouldn't be cheap.
I'm sure I have more in my garages - hopefully I should be able to check in the morning.

Thank you very much Andy: I'll await your findings.
Hopefully you'll have a slightly better day as well

.
BTW, Sorry to hear you're down to your last 30-35 wheels at home, must be a worry

Barry - I have 2 x 380mm wheels which may be of interest:
Wheel 1 is an imitation leather wheel (part no. 914.347.809.00 dated 7/74) - would be an ideal candidate for recovering in leather:
Wheel 2 is the hard plastic version (part no. 914.347.804.11 dated 5/74):
Prices:
1) Donation of £20 to MacMillan Trust (inc P&P)
2) Donation of £25 to MacMillan Trust (inc P&P)

Andy, I'll take the top one please, if nothing else it'll leave a 914 wheel available 'as is'.
Thank you very much, and very generous. I've sent a P.M. with some details, but I'll match you, if that's O.K., so forty to Macmillan if that's right?
