I bought this car off Ebay about a month ago and I wasn't able to go pick it up until this morning due to school. The seller gave a very vague description on it but it had a 2.0L engine and it was within an hour of my home so I bought it. It wasn't until a few days later that I realized it might be a LE since it was a white 74 with a 2.0L engine and mahle wheels. When I picked it up this morning I saw that the last last five digits of the vin# were 15378 and I also saw orange paint shining through. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) It is not in the LE registry but it is within the range. Here are some pics of what I found.
 Purrty aint she?  You can see the orange paint underneath the gold  Here is a picture of the front bumper.  Front bracket for the spoiler. If you look closely you can see some orange paint on the chunk of fiberglass still there.  No side holes and black trim  Gray headlight covers that were painted black at some point. You can see the grey underneath. |

Thanks for the kind words guys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I took the title to the DMV this morning so I should be getting the title back in my name within the next two weeks.
After thinking about it for a while, I have decided that I am going to keep it. It will be a long term project (what 914 isn't?) and I will just take my time with it while I work to get my other project running. I will also order a COA and hang that up on my wall when I get it.
