VIN is 30011 & it came from the Factory with a GT kit including: "twin plug heads; non-adjustable forged rockers titanium rods; 46 IDA carbs with steel carb covers; Koni shocks; Fiberglas rockers, front & rear deck lids; long studs." - but narrow (non-flared) body. The car - which has only covered 9979 km (that's 6,237 miles !) - is currently being painstakingly restored : |

He'll have new calipers to bolt on it when it's done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=67599 I believe those to be the very first 914-6/GT calipers ever put together. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Owner is a member here but doesn't post and doesn't care to be called out right now however, after that thread (with his GT) I'm sure there's a few who can now put a name to the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I told Pete about it a while back and I think there's an article in the wings when it's finally completed. I have a bunch more pictures he sent to me but asked me not to post. There's some "REALLY" interesting things about this car. It is, as mentioned, a factory hot-rod. It was originally used as a press demonstrator car. It ended up in the hands of the late Gary Wigglesworth and was sold out of his estate. This is the very first -6 off the factory assembly line. I think it's a tremendously important car. I can't wait to see it done (I've been promised a ride!) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
