Hello, I have purchased a stalled restoration 1973 1.7 plain Jane. Car is completely apart. Previous owner had bought approximately $10,000 in new parts, which includes all new dark brown interior and carpet. Here is the question the car original color was L96D silver, I have never seen that combination in a 914 before. Does anyone have a silver with brown interior or have you seen one. Most likely it had black interior to begin with. I don't want to buy new interior so I am considering changing the paint color. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated .
Thanks, Bruce |

Thank for the quick reply and good advice. I think I could get use to the silver and brown and it does make since that I can change out interior later on.
I realize keeping the original color will help hold it's value later on. I'm looking forward to getting this car on the road. I feel like the 914 is the last air cooled Porsche I can fully enjoy. I have a couple of 356's that have become valued to the point that I'm concerned about when and where I drive them, also the parts have become crazy priced. Thanks for your help, I sure I will need some more direction. Bruce |
