Jeff -
Lacking an actual VIN shown anywhere - it could be a 74+75/76 Frankenteen. The 914 hitch looks like it could be one of these H&H aftermarket ones from back in the day - & this 914's hitch: PS- If this hitch is an H&H, then it appears to be modified without the rearmost crossbar supports up to the rear trunk structural crossbrace due to the wider-longer 911 -6 implant, ergo the bigger 6 bolt center plate at the bottom. Not sure, but that's my guess. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |

It has an aluminum 911 block ( 65-68.5) with mechanical fuel injection which
was never a factory combo 2.1 litre ? that's a 2.4 with one dead cylinder. It has two turbos and a pair of flux capacitors. It is also prepared for towing with a 911 trombone oil cooler moved to the rear. Front trunk touring package. High performance plumbing equipment. |
