Again, sitll new to the World so have been thinking out loud with questions I do not know answers to.
I have been told my 70 914 is a Euro car. What does that mean. I have checked the fenders and there is absolutely no evidence of weld or filler where the side markers go. I also have the 914 VW emblem on the back. There is no weld or filler on the back side either. Would the VIN divulge if I have a Euro car (still dont know what that even means or signifies). |

IIRC your car is a V8 conversion, so "euro" doesn't mean much anymore. The visible differences would be the rear light lenses with yellow/orange outer turnsignals and front marker lights with a clear portion at the bottom. |

Hmm, based on the description, I would tend to believe mine is a Euro as I have all the items you listed. I was more curious than anything since I dont know much about the 914 and its history. It is interesting about what the one member said of the majority of the 914's being sold in Cali, etc. Thanks so much for the info. Regards.. |
