Found a couple of pictures of Mayan Green 914s on the Internet so they did make them. Also, my car has the what I believe to be original muffler and exhaust system on it. The muffler says Porsche on it and very much appears to be original. Coupl of pictures of the interior

Found a couple of pictures of Mayan Green 914s on the Internet so they did make them. Just to be clear on what I posted above, I was not saying they didn't sell any, just that Mayan wasn't a stock color & had to be special ordered, or changed at the dealership. This 914 is so clean & pristine, that you really need to show it & concours it at your local region & zone PCA events, then Parade is coming to the PNW next year I think - so there too! Keep it in the Preservation Originality Division at these PCA events for your Zone & national Parade. So even though you're getting a full carpet set of NOS - do NOT succumb to change out the entire carpet set, but only those pieces which have too much wear - e.g.: the driver & passenger floor mats, maybe one or both rocker panel peices &/or the center tunnel piece - because you do not want to pass the 75% original test on the interior. Same thing goes for exterior paint, but the fender damage repair is probably still below the 75% original threshold, but not much more can be done (FYI - paint chip/scratch touch-ups generally won't count, but you'll need a fresh bottle of touch-up paint). Also can't hurt to show it at a few multi-marque & Euro/German shows up there too! AACA & others have their own rles for how much of what needs to be original. You should do very well with proper & thorough cleaning, prep & detailing! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) With the 45k miles, original car, & in this condition - this is an exceptional example! Good Luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
