Please forgive the topic title, my journalism teacher taught me to be bold with topic lines! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif)
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif) I have a 72' 1.7 that has brand new "alpine white (soft white)" paint and gold "P" letters on the "hood". The only other "badge" on the exterior of car is a gold {914} emblem on the right rear in the usual place. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bootyshake.gif) Additionally, my car has Perini wheels (thanks Greg Robbins for IDing (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) ) that are Mahle look-a-likes with "plain chrome" (unembellished) hub covers. I would like to know if my car is "badged" as it was when stock and new (USA, USa, Usa, usa, usa usa.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/flag.gif)) I would also like to know how a euro model was visually different, also regarding badging. I am aware that the car was a VW-Porsche in Europe and I was thinking of "rebadging" my car in the "euro style" to match my "FLATVW" licence plate.(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_flagge6.gif) Comments? TIA (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |

The Brian Long book lists following radios as options:
M095 - Blaupunkt Wolfsburg (MW/LW) M097 - Blaupunkt Emden (MW/LW/UKW) M587 - Blaupunkt Hannover (MW/LW/UKW) with automatic antenna the Becker radios were only available on the six I'm a little curious about the fact, that there's no photo of a factory installed radio in the sales brochures, no matter if german, US, french or english? We all know that they always show well optioned cars in theis sales brochures ... But radios appeared in the price lists ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Gustl |
