Found out today that while the shop was working on my 914-6, one of the flunky's remove & destoyed my sticker from the door-jam. I had made it Perfectly Clear that this sticker was not to be touched and to be protected during the restoration. But now it's gone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
I was told that you can get them from Porsche? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I know that George sells replicas, but how do you get them perforated? Pissed & confused in Tampa, T.C. |

I haven't measured it but if the holes are 2/3mm that space inbetween them seems to be more than that like maybe the 1mm Reid posted.
Ok I couldn't stand it I measured my 75 and also discovered a couple of variances. The 4 in my build date has the bottom hole missing and the beginning # symbol has a left beginning bottom horizontal line hole missing. I guess the punches got stuck. Also posted above: The diagonal line has different spacing than the numbers. On both the 914 and a 72 bug the 4 is different between the date and vin. The top left leg on the 914 date (11/74) has 3 holes down and the vin has 4 holes down. All the 7's are the same. The measurements seem to be: height of the char. .278-.280 width .172- .175 vin width 2.550- gap to rt edge .297- between the date and vin .420 date width .980- gap to rt edge .297- down from top .232- vin and bottom .320 This was with calipers holding over the tracing so it could be a little off but not much. It's almost as if the safety stickers were hand punched. I don't know if it will help but I did a pencil tracing on both stickers. I can mail them if you want. |
