Okay so I am picking up a 75 this thursday. Was supposed to be tonight but things didn't work out timing wise. I scoped this car out over a year ago & am finally getting it. It was painted black & not sure of it's original color. The weird thing is the interior was redone. It is all grey. The dash, Backpad,door panels & seats all are a light grey. I know it's a bit of a teaser without pics (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) . I'll get some up when I get it home.
Oh yeah it has a 5 lug conversion done to it. With 16x6 Fuchs up front & 6x7Fuchs in back. The rear quarters have been stretched a bit too for a little wider tire. It has some rust on the inside floor pans & a hole in the battery tray. I am sure there is a little hell hole work needed but not bad at all. The long looks solid but I haven't pulled the rocker yet |

Nice find.
I like black 914s. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Is it a respray that was originally yellow? Paint on the trunk where it was brought down to metal doesn't show any yellow but the inside floor does. What is at the top part of the leftmost dash gauge that includes the gauge for the fuel level? On my '75 it's where the red light is indicating the E-brake is on, but yours looks different and I can't make out what it is in the picture. ![]() Cool project. |

I'm thinking it is an oil pressure gage. I'll have to look into it when I get home. I am digging the black too. Might just be a keeper for me if I sell my LE (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) . I am pretty sure it was a yellow before but haven't checked the paint code. I haven't had time to do anything with the car since that first weekend. I'll get back to it in the coming weeks. |
