I have just bought a 72 with 6k miles on it. The owner wrecked it just after buying it and let it sit since then.
The VIN is 4722901087, the color is green (so am I, so I don't know the name of the color), there is a lot that was taken off of the car before I got there, so I don't know if this thread will help anybody, but I will be happy to check anything out if anybody has any questions regarding originality. It still has the original battery in it, and the last oil change sticker from the porsche dealership. I will get some pics up as soon as it gets delivered to my garage. I am trying to decide whether to try and sell it as a wrecked low mile roller, or cut it up and crush it, so please chime in. I don't have space (or patience on the part of the GF) to keep it, so I really just got it for a couple of parts that I needed, and also I couldn't pass up a 6k mile 914. |

It had a front ender which transferred all the way to the tranny to snap off the ears. I think I have all the part to fix er from my last cut-up, but I sure as heck ain't doin it noooooooo way. Over my head.
The rust is really just where the paint broke in the crumple zones as far as I can see. I took a few pics with my phone, just need to figure out how to get them off (it's a treo, still figuring that thing out.) |

But a hit bad enough to dislocate the trans ears..... I imagine it may really be 100% totalled if it is tweaked that bad..... Pics. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |
