OK, just got a much appreciated hand-written descripion of my 1970 914/6 from Jurgen Barth, but unfortunately no Kardex. Before I request a COA from Porsche,
does anyone have a source for the factory codes for the 914/6? Went looking on the Interwebs to no avail... and neither the Johnson or Long books have the info. Seems like an obvious thing to include in the appendix of an "authenticity" book. VIN: # 914 043 1396 Eng: # 6404878 Trans: Not Recorded Paint: 1410 Interior: 11 Options: C02 and 566 Muchas gracias! |

#1396 was produced / delivered in April 1970
engine number is correct for this year / period - but I can't tell you if it's a matching number transmission number should be somewhere aroung 7501400 (+/-) paint code 1410 = signal orange interior 11 = black leatherette with black leatherette basketwave seat inlays option 566 = fog lights no idea what option C02 could be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Many thanks for the interior and options, Gustl. Figured the brown interior that came with it wasn't right... but it's going away anyhow. I'm building a GT so the foglight thing is moot as well. In fact, the chrome bumpers are gonna end up in the classifieds. So... C02 is still a mystery. Maybe someone on the RennTech forums knows. I'm fortunate to have good contacts... it's an email from him, Gustl... so sorta handwritten. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

You can do it by email too, & just say you're planning to get a COA sometime. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/OpEq.htm BTW - you may be able to find & reunite the H-6 engine by that s/n, by keeping an eye out in the classifieds here, 914club, ClubNARP, Pelican, TheSamba, evil-bay, etc., since they do come up occasionally.

How old is the note from Jurgen? Because he has been seperated from Porsche for a couple of years now. Where in Florida are you? Always nice to know of another Sixer around here. T.C. |

Always nice to know of another Sixer around here. T.C. Thanks for that, Tom... had been looking for that list on RoadGlue. Will request a COA hoping it covers that "C02" thing, whatever it is... but have experienced the incomplete nature of COAs before. T.C., I'm in WPB and bought the car about a month ago from Kevin J; my friends at KlubSport asked Herr Barth on my behalf and his reply came yesterday. Not just for this car, but also one of the early 911S's I have. He may no longer be directly involved with the company but is still a tremendous resource. BTW, you have Sixer to Sixer PM.
