This car won the 914 Preservation Class today at the Parade. It is owned by Steve Gaglione of Tampa. The color is sahara beige, has 21,000 miles, ice cold a/c and looks like it came off the showroom floor. A time warp on wheels.

I actually spoke with steve regarding a 914 one of his friends was selling. He told me about that car. Im quite surprized to see a photo of it on the web.
Sounds absolutely amazing. Like to see that next to the 73 Italian 1.7 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) He said the beige car came from colorado. I vaugly recall seeing it posted for sale then removed. 1998 or 99.

Wow! What a stunning car!

Does anyone know if this was considered a special order color? Sahara Beige (L80Z) was a standard VW color for 74. This is the first 914 I've seen in this color.

Steve told me today the owner matched a 356 color.
The bumper caps look too good to be true.

There were very few 914s entered in the concours. I'll post pictures of the others in a seperate post.

That's Incredible - which one of us wouldn't love (or lust) to have one?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I don't normally masterbate at the computer, but I'd be glad to make an exception in this case. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Wonder how long the buyers list would be if he ever offered to sell it.

Enjoy!

Something I see as unusual, the front bumper has bumperettes and the rear bumper doe's not have bumperettes, and this is a 1973 2.0 914. Who would have thought.

That's typical for a '73. Rear bumperettes came on 1974 cars.

The fact that the front has bumperettes and the rear doe's not, still appears unusual. I would expect to see front "and" rear bumperettes installed or none at all.

Oh, I know what you mean. I'd prefer to lop mine off. They do appear a bit unsightly just looking at the car from the side. I think I can deal with visible holes in my bumper, maybe some rubber plugs.

My 73 had front AND rear tits. But it is/was a 1.7L.

So, I guess the slower car NEEDS them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
