it is within the LE vin # range! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) it's hard to know if it is all matching numbers though. Somebody close should take a look a close look.

Gold letters across the engine grill is telling my gut no, it's not bumblicious. Like to get a closer look @ the center gauges to see if they're original & just put into a different plate to make room for the AC.

edit- they're not original center console gauges so I really doubt it's a bee. Looks nice though.

It was slippers. And you weren't supposed to say anything.

But... the heat control lever is the one used with center console cars so at one point, the car most likely had a center console. The temp and volt gauges are original. The middle gauge - not.
Gold letters were from earlier years, yes? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Looks like someone put together a nice custom 914.

If it is a BB, besides paint, any distinguishing markers are no longer present. I am with Blackstain - doubtful it is a bee (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I spoke to someone who was at the car today.
It has a chrome spare wheel.
Paint code is L041
Has carbs.
No evidence of stripes under paint.
Battery tray and support probably replaced. Ruddy red primer showing through, otherwise right side looks good including jack receiver. That is, it looks pretty good without being there to remove the rocker.
It has black squirters and black trim on sails, but sail trim is repainted.
No evidence of filled trim holes at lower edge of sail panel.
Build date 2 - 74
No COA
What else ?

The seller is now referring to it as an LE in his ad. Says yellow paint was found in the door jams.

I seriously doubt this is an LE. As pointed out already, gold engine grille letters, no fogs, black (not grey) headlight motor covers, not quite right center gauges. I know all these items are "bolt on", but to go so much effort to hide it's an LE is too much for me. Why would you replace an NLA LE front spoiler with that one? A closer inspection would reveal much more (I'd look for stock factory sway bars both front & rear). Also, why would there be yellow paint on the door jamb? Only thing yellow there should be the tops of the rockers. As an LE owner myself it's simple- you own an LE you get a COA saying so.
