Here's mine...




I like those angled flares a lot better than the GT flares. Are those added on? Where did you get them?

I absolutely like this Grasshopper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/locust.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)


I never noticed that! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So did Jeff do the conversion to Grasshopper, or a subsequent owner? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
... or were the plates transferred to another same vintage 74 914 (possible to do but not likely)? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

PS - since I like blue on 914s, maybe I should get a white 74 from the known range & do it up with Blue bumpers, wheels & stripes, then start the myth of "The Blueberry" - UV4 or whatever! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Chris,
Cool looking car, never seen the white interior...looks very clean.

Selling it? Another one in the works?
Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)


THAT. IS. HOT.
Mine originally had white interior. Previous owner had it dyed black. Rare. I prefer the white.

My 75 2.0 restored. I'm second owner w 51000 miles. White interior with AC. Could be forsale?


Hey Chris - that is friggin' beautiful! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Was yours one of the OE 75-76 White Leatherette/Brickweave interiors from the factory, or did you change it from another color interior?

... BTW - I know that you recovered the center console in white, since all were black from the factory on any interior color.

I would guess that a factory original L80E/White Interior would be be as rare as hens-teeth! I've seen it in on a few 914's back in the day, & in this Porsche+Audi ad on a blue 914, for those who've never seen a factory white interior, here ya go -



Chris, if you decide to sell this, Jeff Bowlsby is pondering selling his very nice Cremescicle - so maybe a promotion present to yourself this Fall!!?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Kids or no kids - it takes a brave soul to have a white interior & keep it looking that clean!
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)


Mine was factory white until tje previous owner dyed it black. Idiot.

I prefer the white and wear a lot of all white myself. Looks very sharp.

Navy????

Yes - I too was my own DAPO & had a DAPO follow the whims of fashion, and had several respray color changes of my 73 L80E!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Mine was factory L80E with Beige interior as of it's 8/31/72 build date, then either the dealer or OO/PO changed it to Gold - which it was when I got it in 12/75 (2nd owner), & they maybe had either Sahara Beige or a Beige tinted primer under that. I changed that to L99K Copper Metallic in 8/76 (too much of the same color with Gold+Beige & paint had some issues), then to the current/last Anthracite/Dark Grey metallic in 5/80 (to rustore some rust bubbles starting & for CHP/Cop "pavement cammy").

She'll go back to L80E in my resto, and should come out looking similar to her "twin" owned by Brent in an earlier post. In fact, a pic of his is my laptop desktop background to keep that goal in mind.

Progression of my factory L80E 8/72 - 12/12 - using examples from other cars, since I don't have any old pix on hand....

^ 8/72 to 197? - Brent E's "twin"

^ 197? to 197? - Steve G's - never saw mine in this color, but I found that beige paint layer between the L80E & Gold recently.

^ 197? to 8/76 - Gold unknown owner - from evil-bay ad I think.

^ 8/76 to 5/80 - Brent E's again - yes, the "twins" crossed color paths twice in their lives!

.

^ Current Color since 5/80 - my early 73 914-2.0 "914 S" as she currently sits - still in Anthracite metallic.

^ Back to the Future Color in 20?? - Brent E's yet again - hopefully soon, for the third color path crossing once my resto is done!

Slow to not at all right now Brent! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

My wife's 88 Westy is the current project which is getting finished in the paint & body shop right now, then I'll do the interior & some exterior detailing as her anniversary present....a bit late for last Aug.! But at least we got her "new" restored `60 Avion T20 vintage travel trailer (sim. to Airstream) home in time for then!

Then I need to have the 325e reupholstered front seats, steering wheel recovered, new dash top (yes, they crack too) & doors seals. That little project was interrupted when my wife got hit with a fender bender in the Westy, which increased that project from just a refresh by me, into a full windows out repaint & reseal! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Oh, and then there's the ongoing restoration of our 1921 Craftsman Bungalow house....and the honey do list! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

And I do have to work some as well.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Hopefully I can get the 914 stripped down & into a paint/body shop for the strip to bare metal, body work & repaint sometime later next year ..... if we don't all die in 11 days! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


merry & Happy to you! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/santa_smiley.gif)
Did you ever get your steering wheel recovered Brent? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

DSW online in Dallas recovers them for about $185 IIRC (with or without the extra padding, so while yours is under wraps for the winter would be a good time to pull it & ship to them to look all purdy for next Spring/Summer!

Long gone. Still my favorite. Really like the look of the 75-76 models.


I normally do not like those black painted Fuchs you sometimes see. The originals have always been my favorites. But these painted wheels look really good.

Here's mine...




I like those angled flares a lot better than the GT flares. Are those added on? Where did you get them?

Mine are 930 Turbo steel flares. A total of 8 of them. Two per corner. They were put on the car back in its racing days. I'm guessing 15-20 years ago. At this point they are "20 footers". The bondo is lifting and the paint is cracking. I'm working on a GT flare solution right now. The 930's look cool but are not cost effective to repair. In addition, they are lap welded, really crappy. Remember this was a race car...

Attached ImageAttached ImageI started with a stock '76. A no rust body with a decent repaint (but, as i found out, over a lot of parking lot dings) and some R rear fender damage probably from a blowout. Oh yeah,...and a VERY tired engine that finally just quit!

Since its not original and I'll never be able to afford a real Creamsicle, I've spent nearly a year and even MORE money, rebuilding, repainting, converting bumpers, etc. but I won't feel guilty about driving it for many miles, hopefully in a few more weeks,...or months...
