So, my 914 which I knew was originally produced 11/69 according to all the plates and vin...turns out it was factory ordered BLACK, #790 off the line in 1969.

I find this to be very cool! Anyone know the total production numbers that year? Is it worth it to repaint in black even though its had a NUMBER of modifications made on it including: completely redone interior w/ 73 year specific trim, adjustable seat, rebuilt EC case 2056cc motor.....

Car was bought with all these mods...but what would an original 1969 Black 914 be worth! Rare as a -6? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Talk amongst yourselves....

Black was an extra cost option during the early years (why?), and was a $300 option in '72. With all the optional/mods to your car I don't think it would warrant the expense of a total strip and respray. It's never going to be a six-figure 914. Accept it as it is.
