Thanks

Surprised these are hard to come by—thought both the long Euro "914-6 VW Porsche" and the North American "914-6" were both available.
A quick search suggests no—and I can't seem to find old ads for them either.

Come on man....
Ha
See these on Ebay quite often. One there as we speak.

Can you make them like the early car's gold color?
No gold right now , only bare aluminum.

Yep, no gold option right now. I am waiting for a gold letter to arrive from a generous 914World member that has donated one to me. (thx Sergio) so that I can try to duplicate.
That one 914-6 emblem on eBay looks horrible. You'd think they'd clean it up before posting.

I bought the Euro version 3 years ago from Sierra Madre, first rate quality. They still list those, the US version says "Currently unavailable".

Hm. So what's fair market value for a nice NOS U.S. "914-6" badge?

Please don't tell me!
Some 15+ years ago i cut up a NOS (Euro) 914-6 badge to make a 916 badge.

Feel that pain, having modded some parts I wouldn't mod today.

It would be pretty simple to make a good duplicate. We are already doing the other 914 ones in gold silver and black.
Highly polished and finished if I could do 50 I could do them in the $35-40 range.
Posted by: raynekat Feb 20 2021, 06:23 PM
See my post above.
There is one for sale on eBay.
$200 should buy it.
They are not cheap.
One day to go.
It's at $189.
Go get it Man....

Wanna PM me a link I'd be happy to make these to help the community.

Came in a misc box of parts with my 6, something told me to move and look in the box before it got crushed. Also a NOS Carrera 3.0 badge in the box...

I got mine from Rich Bontempi 4-5 years ago for $350 + shipping.

If you are doing a group buy I would want one silver and one gold.
