What does this mean:
QUOTE During the build, the original chassis was deemed to have had too extensive corrosion to be a safe platform, and a replacement chassis was sourced from another 1970 914. Some of the original 914-6 body panels were moved over to the new chassis along with genuine steel fender flares and a lightweight fiberglass hood, trunk lid, and removable targa top. Selling with a 914/6 VIN.. but this seems to make it seem less 914/6 and maybe a vin swap? I'm sure there is a clear explanation. That said, looks like a fun car! |

This will be interesting for sure. |

QUOTE It clearly says VIN swap. This will be interesting for sure. My apologies.. I didn't see that in the write up.. So, why list it as a 914/6 if its a VIN swap. My guess is the VIN swap was done to make it Vintage racing eligible? And then sell the books and market it as a "factory 6" if it really isn't? |
