I saw a thread a while ago in which I think it was Andy had a couple of pics of the early cowls that were closed up as opposed to using the rubber seal. I know some of you have welded those closed but my question is how were those closed up on the early cars? Did they use some sort of filler? Also, if someone has those pics again I'd love to see them.
In the 35 years I've been working on 914s on a daily basis, I don't recall ever seeing an original car without the seam (and the filler strip). The Cap'n
Ooh, that's a good start. I though in one of the pics I saw you could still see a slight trace of the seam. It looked like they used seam sealer or something like that.
Thanks Andy, that's what I was looking for. I've got a very early 70 that is a /6 conversion that I am putting back together and I might do some of these non-factory "adaptations" to the car to see what people notice and just to keep them guessing.
You don't own the blue conversion that came out of CO do you?

No.
