December 2022 updates:
914 Can Am car owners, please review the Registry for your cars listing and let me know of any updates or corrections needed. Its up to date with all information I have.
I just finished updating the Registry with new information collected this year and we now have 300 cars listed. Information was updated on over 60 cars. I plan to do additional general site maintenance, but please let me know of anything specific I should prioritize.
https://bowlsby.net/914/CanAm/914CanAmRegistry.htm
From data collected over this past year:
Certified 914 Can Am Cars
135 of 300 cars = only 45% of the Registry cars are officially documented with a COA, PPS, CTS or Zertificate.
We also have documented more than 30 known 'tribute' 914 Can Am cars, where a few are executed extremely well. Flattery is sometimes good, sometimes bad. There are likely several hundered light ivory and black 914's within the 914 Can Am car VIN range providing opportunity to those less scrupulous.
Please be extra encouraged to officially document your 914 Can Am car sooner than later, all things considered. COAs are no longer available, and as time goes by getting official documentation will likely be more costly and harder to obtain.

Please see my added note in the first post above, about Certified 914 Can Am Cars
An update to this update thread.
I recently learned of another 914 LE Bumblebee from Arden NC, since the first post of this thread. This car brings us to 300 914 Can Am cars on the Regisry, the perfect milestone to wrap up 2022.
See VIN 15140 on the Registry. Mark F, the long time owner has quite a legacy with this car, owns other 914s and other P-cars. He has built them, raced them, ralleyed them and intends to pass them to the next generations of his family. Passion.
I also found record of this years sale of a beautifully restored Austrian 914GT Bumblebee for 45K euros, VIN 16319 also on the Registry. Bumblebee values are holding their own.
First post in this thread has been updated to display the correct stats.
