Here are close-ups of the area on 914114...was previously curious about what all this lead build-up was doing on the cowl. The tank/filler spout could be original or changed. It was a prototype working model after all.

But then again, 914114 has bright trim on the door tops, the puzzle car does not. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Yes. Because this is a prototype car. Anything you can think of was done to them, and then some.


Regarding the hood badge, no PRODUCTION car ever came with a badge from the factory.

Interesting point ...

There's only one person i know that could have a look at that and tell us if the underside of the cowl on 914.114 has evidence of a patch ...

But it has 914/4 wheels and hubcaps ...

Hard to tell from the image, those could be 5-lug steel wheels with hubcaps ...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif)
Those look like /4 hubcaps and trim rings to me.

Just bought the same puzzle (but with Swedish packing), intresting that they still can be found "NOS" in mint condition.

That looks exactly like the car on the puzzle and in the photos.

At a guess, the color did not reproduce so well, and came out more yellow on the puzzle than in person?

Too many differences from 914.111. See post #15 in this thread.

Later model or more likely 911 interior rear view mirror.
I'll bet the early 914 interior mirror was to imitate the shape of the rear window.
