What makes it a 914-6 dash? Thought there was just an early ('70-'71) dash and a late ('72-'76) dash.

Posted by: sixaddict Oct 19 2016, 07:38 PM

How about some pictures. The price is heavy but for the real deal in excellent condition someone may be willing to bite the bullet..... but certainly not without pics

I would definitely be interested in a perfect early 914 dash. I don't know of any difference between a 4 and a 6 dash though. I'd like to see some pictures. And is it used or NOS?

The difference is the undercut at the glove box. These are not unique to the 6. However if you have one in mint shape probably worth the asking price to the right guy with OCD

Steve Martin, here's a dash from a 1970 914/6 that I sold five years ago, in fair condition, for $350.00. The most obvious feature is the 911 style ignition switch hole on the lower left side.

Do you honestly think anyone is going to shell $1000 for an item when you wont even post a picture?
And is it the actual dash or the dash pad?

Things are obviously slow and all ( including me) are bored.

Dashes, just like rear bumpers are only early and late. Not 6 vs. 4
The seller has listed cars for sale here and on Ebay on an irregular basis.
He has a history of failing to allow cars to be seen in person, cancelling appointments,
breaking deals etc. etc. etc.
I live 45 minutes away from him and called to see a car he had for sale.
Big run around. Never agreed to show the car.
Others have suffered much worse through dealing with him.
I'm not the only one.
Good Luck.

Can you post a pic of the underside to see the mounting studs?

Posted by: bdstone914 Oct 31 2016, 05:55 PM

And the underside to show that it really is an early dash?

Posted by: lostreasure Oct 31 2016, 07:09 PM

I removed this dash from a 1970 914 -

Posted by: altitude411 Oct 31 2016, 07:24 PM

Picture please...

If it's as mint unused, then.....why? How's the rest of the car?

Posted by: Mikey914 Oct 31 2016, 08:23 PM

The underside will be your money shot here. Yes the rest is nice, but the true CWs want to see that it will align for the glove box.

Posted by: sixaddict Oct 31 2016, 08:28 PM

Ok so lets call the cards on this one.
I sent pm asking for pics with taper measure showing critical dimension and paypal account address for payment. I have received neither leading to the conclusion this is all bs.gif

agree.gif
Anyone reading this thread has been "schooled" on the difference between an early and later dash pad....and would be remiss not to follow up before purchase.

Most of us really do have a life beyond 914, by choice or, more likely, out of necessity

Has this dash pad been recovered or is it the original vinyl? The color and the grain look different from my original pad.

Posted by: Mikey914 Nov 2 2016, 08:25 PM

Really too hard to judge the texture without some close up pics. I do think it has not been recovered in that it doesn't look puffy. It could be legit front what I can see, but too blurry when blown up to see for sure.

Posted by: lostreasure Nov 3 2016, 05:28 AM

It has not been re-covered- It is original and mint. I have never seen a nicer one for sale any where! there is no warpage or bubbles like all the other ones that have or are for sale.

Posted by: Garland Nov 3 2016, 06:58 AM

It appears that there is a slight "dent" at the right top side of the ash tray opening. True?

Are the mounting studs metal or plastic?

Its shadowing of the substructure you can see on the top of the hood also. More apparent in certain lighting. Would mean definitely no recovered.

Posted by: stevegm Nov 4 2016, 07:29 PM

Can we get some pictures of the underside. I'm interested if it is definitely an early NOS dash.

Posted by: gcrotvik Nov 5 2016, 01:20 PM

This is sold. I don't know who purchased it. I tried to buy it but someone was there before me.

I don't believe it. Unless he got all the pictures we were waiting for him to post. Who bought it, can they post here so we know it even existed.
