I am a new member on this forum. I live in Sweden and my wife inherit a 914 from her brother who sadly passed away in December. The car Is in good condition on body and paint. But it need some TLC because it has stand still since 2006.
It will be great fun to get this car out on the road again. I previous has owned some old Volvo and Saab from the 50,s and 60,s. The 914 will be a new experience.

I wonder if this 914 was originally sold in Sweden, or imported?

Asking because I don't see the headlamp washers that we have heard so much about.

if its a 70 it might not have had them.

or maybe even later in time.
eg vw didn't fit swedish headlight wash set up on its cars until 74 model year.

maybe the swedish washer for 914 comes later in production run?

you could get it as an option on australian saabs and volvos though there was no law in aus requiring them. still remember seeing them. only cars that had them.
