so excited to find 914world!
here is my 3 car "collection." a couple of questions on my '70 914: is there supposed to be a board of some sort in the front trunk over the spare tire? aren't the rockers supposed to be black? my car had big rubber eraser head-type bumperettes on the front bumper. Were these an option? is the black paint covering the chrome (which would have been under the rubber bumperettes) supposed to be there? Oh and are there driving lights? I don't have a switch for one on the dash as far as i know. Were these optional? I'm trying to get it as stock as possible. |

From one of the pics, looks like you might have orange rear tailights? US models had red tailights. Finding non cracked original ones can be hard. I like the orange look on some colors.. but since you were asking about originality (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
You should also have a removeable passenger footrest. And then as the others have mentioned 1) Front bumper is from a later car 2) Rockers should be black. 3) There is a carpeted board that sits on the spare to give you a trunk floor for carrying items. Front valance should be black (not green), like the rockers. If the bumper is chrome, the grilles should be chrome (looks like yours are black?) |
