I am a half-year 914 guy, the car spends a lot of time in winter storage here in Northern Michigan. I bought my 1974 1.8 in 2007, helped along by the generous advice of 914world members.
Now the Parade is only 40 miles from my house, I am thinking of entering the concours. Immediate questions involve the completely unoriginal radio, wheels that have been repainted, and front and rear sways that I had installed when Brad Mayeur did the original work on it. Otherwise it is a very clean car. I am wondering if I am ineligible for a "survivor" judging because of these mods? My original thread with pics: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...c=69564&hl= Thanks for your help. Paul |

I did not contest them because I did not read the sheet while I was there, having already won first place.
Coachwork: possible hit in the right rear ...I think this is from the factory sway bars in the rear trunk Dash, Steering, Instruments: optional console not on Kardex ...This was part of the chrome bumpers, I would assume, like an Appearance Group Tools: missing couple of tools ...I have a complete kit, I believe, just less for 1974 than earlier cars.

Paul You might want to look into the center console. In the 1973 model year 2.0Ls, lots of the otherwise optional equipment items were standard, but in 1974, these became optional and the equipment groups changed composition. Your chrome bumpers would have been an extra cost option in 1974, are they shown that way on the COA? Here is a list of separate optional equipment items for all years: http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/OpEq.htm Attached image(s) |

And my car has fog lights as well as the center console. I mean, this thing has the wiring harness in place for the console. And I know for a fact from the original owner's son that the chrome bumpers were not parted out for other fog light bumpers and the console was not added separately. With the COA as it is, I'm not so sure the Monroney sticker would be any better (but it is, alas, unavailable). Any ideas, Jeff? Paul |
