So, I'm hunting around for parts and finding more and more NLA parts that could spell the end of some cars. Sure there are work arounds like sealing your sunroof shut, since you cant rebuild the manual ones anymore as the Felt slide rails are NLA. but what about parts that actually will keep your car off the road.
Like the Oil Check valves. In past years people have said to find them in the vacuum pump rebuild kits, but even those are becoming harder to find. Or transmission parts as only the clutch pack seems available for some of the older manuals, what if you break a retaining ring your hosed.I dont think our car will end because of regulation, simply the fact that you can no longer repair them. Starts making me wonder if finding a repower solution is actually the answer by replacing the drive train with something modern that can actually be fixed.
