I bought me a 914 i found on Craigslist in Boulder, Co. It was delivered yesterday. It needs a new paint job and some little things here and there. But its a nice car none the less. 1970 dated 11/69 paint code L041. rare (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) The motor was rebuild to a 2056 buy a Porsche shop in Denver, has 8k miles on it now. The driver front caliper was blown when it was delivered. Looked like it was a small leak that got progressively worse, then went out on my first drive.

Nice looking green. L041 is black, I'm partial to green but black is cool.

Custom made center console w/ speaker?

Clean and straight 914, the 2056 w/carbs looks like a proper hot rod T4 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Thanks guys. yes it's Irish green but the og color was black. Black was a option so probably not a lot of them around.

What different parts came on the early one?

Yeah that's a speaker box center console.

Nice!
May we ask what you paid for it?

Surprised I didnt notice it being in Boulder, OR that you didnt ask anyone on this forum to look at it for you.

Very clean car from the photos , but not to rain on your parade I believe he told me that the underside is full of rot? I know it's been on & off line for quite sometime, again it looks sharp to me.

Good deal, thought hard about it a while back. Guess I should have pulled the trigger. Nice car, and good deal.

I went and looked at your car a couple weeks ago. It would have been mine if it had all the early parts I was in need of. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Take your time and enjoy fixing it up. Don't get discouraged. Half the fun is getting back on the road. After seeing the paint code my plan for it was to strip it down, fix all the metal, and go back to black.

Keep the pictures coming!
