I just purchased a 914-6 all numbers matching nice drivers 1970 914-6 (not for sale)

Please tell me if this is a complete tool kit, if not what is missing?

Thanks,

Dennis

I believe the pliers are no different than the early 911 of that same year and were like these with the polished raised cutting edge. I have seen other pliers but I think in reconstituted kits. I would appreciate hearing from owners of original kits on this detail.

Hi Dick (Hawk)
Pliers should have the Germany logo on them to be 914-6 correct. Here's a photo showing the markings on this photo. One side is plain & other side has the German factory markings.
Hey, I know yours are correct. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
Show them that rare rubber thingie hold down strap on your factory 914-6 jack. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Ok. I'll show it.

The pliers in the original kit are correct. They have the raised curved polished cutting area. The pliers Tom posted are a later 911 set. Also the correct wrenches were "Dropped Forged Steel" in small font. The 17/19mm Tom posted is a "Select Special Steel " which is later 911. I have found what was supposed to be correct and what could actually have gone in tool kits can be different. Porsche was not as picky as the the CW's are now. I have seen what appear to be original tool kits with mixed type wrenches. I also found DFS drop forged steel wrenches in 928 tool kits when those were supposed to only 69-73 911.

Thanks for confirming that the 914/6 pliers have the raised, polished cutting edge. That's what I got from the 914club site as well.
