As you might have seen elsewhere on this site and others, I just bought my fourth 914, this time a well preserved 1974 Olympic Blue, that has been in storage for over 20 years.
So first, this is an open invite for anyone near La Quinta CA to come by and see it anytime you like. And second, a call out for any advice or help to put this car back to dealer showroom condition. Also, what shows I should consider entering once she is complete. One of my first dilemnas is the side stripes. Were these dealer added? or factory? Should I leave the slightly worn originals in place?, replace them with repros, or remove altogether?? Randy |

Before you peel off the stripes, you might want to make sure the paint under the decal isn't a different shade. Aligning new ones to cover the difference in paint fade/glue stain, might not be that easy. Definetly go with steel wheels. Not often seen and they were original to the car.
