I bought my 74 1.8 as a resto project. It was a runner with lots of parts missing and the engine bay was filthy and had been messed with.
I would like to return it to close to original (not anal concours) but can't find a decent photo in all the books of the original engine bay. The restorer's guides etc show adequate photos of the interiors etc but almost nothing (of use) of the engine. I guess that is because the engine bay is less than handsome. I would appreciate some photos to show how the layout of wiring, hoses etc. so I can approximate the original appearance. Original 914's to model off are rocking horse faeces here downunder Many thanks David |
