I purchased a 71 and am trying to get some info. It needs a respray and I plan to paint it the original Gold Metallic.
I have not seen too many of the Gold Metallic cars and am wondering if anyone has any info to share about how many of them were ordered in this color in 1971. I read the special order colors cost an extra $500. Can anyone confirm that and maybe share some other unique info about the special order colors or Gold Metallic in particular? I know some folks think this is an ugly color so please don't rip into me too hard about it. I am looking forward to the car in this color. This is my 9th 914 and I have had a bunch of different colors. The Gold Metallic looks kinda neat on the early car. |

Mike - my car is also an original GOLD metallic car! I am looking forward to seeing your car's new paint job soon..... I will also be in the hunt for a paint job in about a year.
Hell, maybe we can get a group rate (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Robert Ps - the motor you sold me is still running strong. It's about to be transplanted into a second (narrow-bodied) 914 that I picked up. The flared car is getting 4 more cylinders. I purchased a 71 and am trying to get some info. It needs a respray and I plan to paint it the original Gold Metallic.
