Looks like the 7 x 15 Fuchs are the later style post '73 that take the round friction center caps.

Very cool.

What is on both doors & rear deck lid that looks like a license plate light? Is it a light to illuminate the numbers?

That's exactly what it is.

We've seen an article on this car before, maybe a year ago?

Yes, there was an article on this car in Excellence years ago, and I remember an expert calling me with a lot of questions that prompted me to pore over historical photos of the car on Armando's site to determine what might have changed since the 1970s:

I remember that prompted some editing, but it's been way too long to remember what needed tweaking.

The car has also been discussed here before:

What did it sell for in 2008?

What do you think it would sell for if listed on ebay today?

Have any other original factory 914 GT sold recently?
