Hugh sent these two rare documents to me...I have never seen nor heard of them before this. Find them as Rare Doc 5 and 6, on the Rare Documents page, under the links on my Classic 914 website:
http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/RareDocs.htm One appears to be an internal document of the 1973 changes and modifications list...describing the 914S! Must be an early document, before the 914S designation was yanked. The other is a factory document that seems to pertain to about the first 5000 1970 914s/914-6's and how to remedy water leaks. They apparently recognized the problem after ~5000 cars built and changed production methods after the indicated VINs in the document. This is not a Recall Campaign document...so not sure if/how the recommendations were implemented. If you have one of these earliest of 914s, maybe your car was never repaired? Attached image(s) |
