They make universal e-brake units for older cars, unless you are wanting to go back to stock, a company called Chase Bay makes a lot of nice parts for people who build custom cars. Love how you are being all gentle with the tin wires, I'm just planning on ripping it all out and putting in modern copper wires.
I know how much work it is to record this, especially as well as you did…it looks like , no big deal, but having tried it myself, it’s a lot more work than it looks like. So…a big thank you. I’ve tackled a bunch of projects on my 914 and this is this winters project. So it’s perfect timing for me, another thank you.
The connectors on the main harness on the tunnel would have gone to the center console if you had one. The cool thing is you can add one and get the extra gauges to work by plugging into those connectors. The connector under the passenger seat would have been part of the seatbelt warning / ignition interlock. That was a hazard and there was a recall to disable it. I don't know what that round connector is, it's not there on my 73.
That brick under the passenger seat is seat belt warning system. Looks like yours is already bypassed by the big yellow wire being connected to the big yellow wire with red. Also, the Styrofoam in the front on passenger side is stock. I believe its a foot rest.
Thank you so much for taking the time to document this. It helped me remember where a few odd parts went in order. 🙏
You're welcome! I've actually referenced my own videos a few times now when trying to figure out how things go back together. :D

Glad to hear it!
Curious to see how far you take this one….looking good so far!

That's great information to have, thank you!

Good to know, thank you!
Thanks for all the information in your video
Yeah, that made sure those tops will not come off, lol, waiting for mine to be delivered still, are the fenders removable or is it all one body?
It's a unibody. The fenders are spot welded on instead of bolted on.
