Garold and I went over this car on Thursday, it looks like it is pretty stock.
It did get a respray but just on the topside. I have not seen a center tray cushion like it before??? I hope someone will want this 1969 car and restore it. |

I hope someone will want this 1969 car and restore it. Interesting. This is the first early tray I've seen in an early /4. And the bottom of the cushion, which looks stock, is yet another variation of that item. Excluding after market and the console cushion, how many different stock variations and combinations are there to fit the trays? I can think of 3 different bottoms now and at least two different vinyl grain tops. Any 914 built in 1969 should be saved. It's as early as they get without being a prototype. Don |

Don Don, I have also seen the 3 variations on the center cushion, it would be great to see more examples of 1969 cars. I have 4702900076 which was a factory car but it was turned into a 914/6 GT in 1971 by Ralph Meaney so there was no stock interior parts left in the car. I also own 9140430012 which has the tray without a divider but it did not have the center cushion when I bought it about 20 years ago. |

Hey Glenn, We met back some 20 years ago at Ski Roundtop and spoke more recently (last year) on early /6 examples. I also told you of the location of Meaney's first /6.... parts of which is now in #76. Looking forward to meeting you and Garold again at Hershey. We can talk a little more on the subject. Don |
