I finally got my COA and I have an option that I do not know what it means. My car, built in early 1973,has an option called "Equipment for Brazil". What does that mean as to what equipment is different from other 914's.

It must be a mistake. Brazil was not a market for 914s as far as I have ever heard. Ask PCNA review/correct it.

Optional Co Co mats.


Just kidding.


Edit:

John beat me to that punch but I thought about that one.

The optional Eva Braun middle cushion.

Does it have a 1.7 engine ? Like the Volkswagen do Brazil SP2 that had a 1.7 type4 engine in 1973 ? Maybe you have one of those engines in your 914...a Brazil option
Or your car was 'extra waxed' by the dealer

Not sure but trying to remember,pretty sure the SP2 was a T3 motor with 88mm B&P's (1679) ,happy to stand corrected.
I have noticed on the 914 PET export countries are listed but never seen any reference to Brazil ,I believe Jeffs reply confirms that and he would know,maybe a special import as my car is mine is .
