This was a great discussion fellas, sorry I have been away for a few days on business, otherwise I would have joined in earlier. Jeff, Thanks for chiming in here. I know a little about this stuff, but you are most certainly the LE expert! I'm glad I did not misrepresent anything about your most excellent Website. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) VIN chassis plate photo added... honestly if I was trying to falsify the sale of a Porsche I would probably do a 911S or another $100K+ car nevis, The "chassis plate" is the plate in the forward section of the diver's door jam containing the stamped chassis number ("KAROSSERIE NR.") and the paint code ("KUNSTHARZLACK"). I'm surprised someone who has owned "a dozen Porsches" doesn't know that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) A "Creamsicle" would have a paint code of L80E stamped on that plate. With regard to LE "falsification." I can only say that it has been done before. After all, an LE has only cosmetic differences to the fully loaded regular 2.0 models produced within the LE VIN range, so it is much easier to claim that a 914 is an LE that has been resprayed and had various trim bits replaced than to try and replicate 911S mechanicals and build sheets. It's also less risky, because people spending $100K+ for a garage queen are going to do far more homework. Still, LE or not, $15K for a fully loaded '74 2.0 CA car is not a bad price if it is in good condition. If I lived in the LA area, I'd certainly go look at it. It's just a bonus if the car began life as an LE; one could revert to the original paint scheme next time it was due for a respray (and look for an authentic optional front valance in the mean time). And I really like the VIN. |
